Bathwick has done well in this year’s road works plan.

Bathwick Hill will be ‘reconstructed’ and it is proposed to resurface North Road, Widcombe Hill and Darlington Road. The plans have been presented for cabinet approval; the full scope of the works will become clear later. They are part of the Structural Maintenance Capital Programme 2011/12.

Street lights on Oakley and Bathwick Hill are also promised an upgrade, like the ones one Claverton Down and Widcombe Hill installed recently.
