Re: Cycling-walking, Towpaths, Bridges in Ware-Hertford

Kind of important to us given that Route 1 and Route 61 go through the area and use the towpaths.

Re: Cycling-walking, Towpaths, Bridges in Ware-Hertford

The main Bridge 64 at Crane Meads has been made safe. Broken decking timbers replaced. Temporary boarding across the gaps in the fence. Strimming of all the nettles.

It's a not a permanent fix but it is at least safe now.

Re: 1500 new homes for Ware

Well there you go. EHDC District Plan Adopted.

Still, much to do though to hold the councillor's feet to the fire, to hold the developer's feet to the fire, to make sure development is as sensible as possible, within the new constraints.

Re: dog waste

Is that the Dog-Poo Leprechaun? Only rarely seen, he does it to wind up the Dog-Poo Fairy. Don't upset him, or he'll fling the bag high into the brambles.

Remember folks. A dog needs emptying every day. Not just at Christmas.

Re: Cycling-walking, Towpaths, Bridges in Ware-Hertford

Finally got though to somebody at the Canal & River Trust. Both these bridges are owned by them and they're responsible. They are Bridges 64 and 64A (64A over the weir). They've logged the faults and were aware of the main bridge problem. When I get a reference number back, I'll post it here. Th...
