Cottingham Road pavement works delayed

John Fareham and John Abbott are seeking an explanation of why the proposed resurfacing of Cottingham Road pavements has been delayed by the corporate centre.

Papers for the September meeting of Wyke Area Committee listed, as they usually do, forthcoming and current highway projects.  We were therefore somewhat surprised to find this scheme – not by a long chalk the most expensive one included in the list – and a rather more costly plan for improved street lighting in Avenue Ward described as “on hold due to budget constraints”. If the officers thought we sounded less than pleased, they would be right to think so; we asked them to explain in full why this was the case. At the time of going to press we had not been told what their reasons were but as soon as they are communicated to us we will of course pass them on.
