I am honoured to have been re-selected as the Labour candidate to contest the Loughborough East division at next year’s Leicestershire County Council election. I thank those who have put their trust in me.

Baxter Gate will be closed for up to 3 days from 4th November 2024. This is to deal with part of the road sinking near Nando’s.

Update: I have opened up one of the lanes in to Brisge St, (with the help of staff from GTM traffic services. )

This should ease some of the issues faced.

I’ve been to visit the site of the road closure this afternoon and have seen first hand the difficulties motorists are having navingating through the closure.

I have been in contact with the contractors Network Plus to find out when they will complete the job. I have been told that the work permit is open until Monday but I have explained to them that it needs resolving sooner.

I have also conveyed to them that I felt the lane leading up Bridge St probably could have been prevented from total closure by narrowing down the lanes on the other side from three to two.

I will keep you posted with further updates.

I was honoured to go to the opening of the Taylors Bell Foundry extension and relaunch this week. Along with our Loughborough MP Jeevun Sandher, former MP Andy Reed and Cllr Jenni Tillotson, Cabinet Member for Regeneration at Charnwood BC.

I’ve reported this large pooling of water on Rectory Place. There is a blocked drain towards the open gates, Highways will be out to unblock it and solve the issue.

New parking restrictions are in on Great Central Road. This should alleviate some of the issues that have been occurring. Especially with cars being parked on the pavement which can now expect to be ticketed as restrictions on parking are in place.

Nice to see the new road surface go in on this stretch of Meadow Lane. It’s taken near three years from my first enquiry about it to it actually being completed. But to be fair to County Hall there has been some major disruption in that period.

Also thanks to the workmen who have had to do it in this very hot weather. ☀️

Just had confirmation that the new parking restrictions (and one hour parking bays) on Great Central Rd, Loughborough, will be in on the 5th Sept. 2022

I was shown around the new Loughborough Cemetery, off Nanpantan Rd this afternoon.
The site will open Sept/Oct and will have enough burial space for the next 250 years.
Extensive work costing over £1.2m has been done to prepare what was fields on the outskirts of town.
Money was also spent reconfiguring the Nanpantan sports ground car park to make an access road to the site.
The Leicester Rd cemetery will remain open for the time being whilst all the plots there are used up, although people will have an option as to which cemetery they would like to be buried in.
