I am meeting with Wiltshire council highways officers next Monday at 10am about the state of the crossing and railings along here. I will be pushing very hard for:
Fallen tree stumps etc to be cleared
Chalk mounds to be removed. These could cause a likely landslip onto the footpath
Railings to be repaired like for like
The crossing point to be repaired and some signs for oncoming traffic to warn drivers of the crossing
A hopeful repaint of the railings.
I was initially asked my view on the closure of the crossing point from Harvard Heights to Bouverie Ave. I would not support its closure. Although not ideal, it is widely used. Some minor maintenance here will make all the difference.
I will update further.
