STATION ROAD RESURFACING
Resurfacing work from the eastern end of the village limits out to the Spine Road is programmed to begin on 13th December and should be finished by 20th December 2006. The road will be closed whilst the work takes place, but access for residents, pedestrians and emergency vehicles will still be available. Gloucestershire Highways Project Manager Nigel Overal said: "We are laying a whole new surface to this section of Station Road and motorists should notice a real difference once works are complete. We ask drivers to be patient whilst the road is closed and remind people to allow a little bit of extra time for journeys. We will make sure that diversions are clearly signed." The works are taking place in early December so that they don’t affect sewer improvements at the other end of Station Road in the New Year.

UPPER UP TREE PLANTING
Cllr Harris would like to request residents wishing to commemorate an event of significance in their life by having a tree planted with a plaque or a park seat installed on the playing field to contact him for further information. Please contact Cllr James Harris on 01285 861812.

MINI MOTORBIKES
Parents are asked to remind their children that it is an offence to ride these bikes on footpaths or public highways. The Parish Council is not in favour of these bikes being used on its playing fields. Facilities are available however at an indoor centre at RAF Hullavington and at the bottom of Blunsdon Hill, near Swindon.
