Ditton Street Update:
The Town Council have received a number of calls with reference to the temporary traffic lights on Ditton Street. We have contacted the appropriate people and have the following update.
The temporary traffic lights at Ditton Street, opposite the Tesco petrol station, were put in place by Highways after the house, that the car crashed into, needed to be examined by a structural engineer.
The lights will remain in place as the building firm that is going to commence works needs to build a protective wooden skirt and scaffolding around the front of the building so the pavement will remain out of use. As there is no pavement opposite unfortunately there seems to be no alternative but for the lights to remain.
