Loveridge Avenue highways scheme

John Fareham and John Abbott have secured the agreement of Wyke Area Committee to the funding of highways improvement works for Loveridge Avenue. “As all residents will be aware, when Loveridge Avenue was built nobody could have been expected to foresee the age of the two- or three-car household and the increasing pressure on parking space that would result. We have therefore approved spending £26,451 from our ward capital budget on a scheme to realign pavements and kerbs and provide additional off-street parking. It is hoped that as well as making life easier and safer for pedestrians, this scheme will also address the concerns of the emergency services who thought it might be difficult to get a fire engine or ambulance to the far end under present circumstances.
