A note from your Clerk – Roadworks at Cemetery Road

18th January 2022 | Parish Clerk Report

Suffolk County Council are currently carrying out works to Cemetery Road to complete a footway from The Meadows development up to the Memorial Social Centre and install a new bus shelter.  As part of this work, they will also be re-surfacing the road.  These works were identified as part of the S.106 agreement for the Meadows development, and the Parish Council would like to extend its thanks to Suffolk County Cllr Bobby Bennett for her help in ensuring that this scheme was finally implemented.

Unfortunately, in the course of the work, the highways engineers have removed the hedge bounding the cemetery. The clerk has raised this issue with SCC Highways and our County Councillor, Bobby Bennett, is supporting us in our representations that the hedge be fully re-instated by Suffolk County Council with natural species. 

We’ll keep you updated on progress.
