Highways Matters:

Query as to requesting kerbing at far end of Newtown Lane to prevent any erosion of residents' boundaries.

After discussion this was felt not to be an option as it would decrease the width of the lane.

Any suggestion residents should park off road is not an option and has been shown to decrease speed at optimum times such as start and end of school.

There being no further business the meeting was closed.
