we are please that the New bus shelter has at last gone in on Twerton High Street, although not quite the one we would have liked but we are pleased that we pursued the argument to get this one installed.
The reason that it has no back is that it is against a listed wall that needs constant access and if we put a back on it we would not under planning law be allowed to have it there.
We hope residents are happy that the Shelter has gone in it will make an ideal shelter for the many elderly residents that use this stop.

Bus Shelter damaged
The Council are repairing the bus shelter on Newton Road that was recently vandalised after we reported that it was damaged.
The bus shelter has not been in more than a few months and already we have this mindless vandalism.
The shelter should be repaired shortly but if you have any idea who has vandalised this shelter then please let us know.

Newton Road Name plate
We have asked the council to reinstate the road name plate at Newton Road.
The name plate was knocked over several weeks ago after work was carried out by Curo contractors working on the houses in the area.
We would hope that this work would be carried out in the next few weeks.

Poolemead Road, Shaws Way
We have asked the council to take action to restore the damaged grass area that has been overridden by local buses.
We have also asked the council to look at the issue of parking on Shaws Way that prevents buses being able to get around the corner correctly and thus running over the curb and causing damaged to the grass area.
It is important that we get this issue resolved as soon as possible.
