The new Liberal Democrat council will be resurfacing several stretches of road in Bathwick this Summer.

Darlington Road, outside St Mary’s Primary School, will be re-surfaced over the school holidays, as will a stretch of North Road uphill from Cleveland Walk. In both cases the road will be closed for about a week in August.

Bathwick Hill, from Sydney Buildings to the roundabout ,is due considerable work and was set to be closed in October, but your councillors have asked for this to be moved to fit university holidays and avoid unnecessary disruption.
