Morley Street April 2017

We have had letters through stating that Morley Street will be closed to all traffic from 07:00 to 19:00 for Tuesday 18th April for four days for road resurfacing.

Amey have been round and made a dogs dinner of the pavements this week and, according to them, they are planning to come back next week for the road.

Wait till they relay the wretched, not fit for purpose flag stones.

That's when the fun will begin.

which is why we cant park on our street!

If there are not fit flag stones they will be removed and the pavement

will be tarmaced At least that is what happened on Dykes Lane.

they are removing these york stone flagstones only for them to disappear into the pockets of god knows who because they are now more valuable than cheap tarmac which is an easier way of laying a new pavement and requires for less skill than Amey possess.

Provided the costings associated with replacing the flagstones were included in the Streets Ahead scheme, then I don't see a problem.

Many of the slabs on Morley St are broken and patched up with bits of tarmac

and are unfit for purpose ie not level It would cost hell of a lot more to

replace them with new slabs Just have a look on Streetview of the state

of the pavement outside the school

Do you have proof that the slabs being removed are being sold illegally?

The problem is, quite a few residents want them removed, Amey want them removed. Unfortunately the Council don't, and have instructed Amey to lift and refurbish the flag stones.

God knows why, but basically this stretch of street will still end up with a pavement over 100 years old.

Where have you found this information? Have been unable to find anything

on Amey or Council websites

Morley St is certainly the most damaged street I have ever driven down !

The reason it is so bad outside the school is because a few years ago someone decided to steal a number of the flags. Also they are not strong enough to be parked on.

they make a dogs dinner of everything, Henry Boot are a local construction company and should have been used for tthis
