Cllr Brian Dalton. Harnham West Ward | Facebook

Wiltshire council is consulting on rearranging the Harnham Gyratory – Have your say! (I’m not using the word improvement, as these works will bring no improvements to Harnham, but chaos during construction and legacy chaos after).The consultation runs from 17 June to 18 July 2021. Please, have your say and tell Wiltshire council what you think.

Approx £15million will be spent on these works. Tinkering at the edges (look at their proposal) will do nothing, apart from cause total chaos during construction for those of us who live south of the river, more bottlenecks around and entering the gyratory and be a complete waste of money. Something the Conservatives are good at.Click the link below – photos taken from the document which you will be able to see and download.https://www.wiltshire.gov.uk/highways/salisbury-junctions

Wiltshire council are ceasing the booking system for our recycling centres from 12 July, subject to the national restrictions being lifted on 19 July. Opening hours will resume to their post covid times. Hopefully, after the chaotic system ends, things may be back to normal!

WAA were first on the scene of the Novichok saga in March 2018. They are a Charity. They are for us. They were promised about £100,000 by the govt, for destroyed equipment during this international event. They have been forgotten and ignored. My motion hopes to bridge this gap and get those at the top, talking and actioning this.

Wiltshire council met online today (16 June), via Microsoft Teams. Members of the public were able to submit questions, which were read out.

The Agenda and details are here.

One item on the Agenda was of course, about Coronavirus and how Wiltshire has been and is coping.

I spoke in praise of the Harnham organisation, which came together – the Harnham Community Network and Harnham Neighbourhood Association – to help local people get their repeat prescriptions. Well done to those involved.

You can listen to my speech here, praising our community.

Many people have been inconvenienced by the decision to close the practice, forcing patients to drive or otherwise, to Bemerton Heath Surgery, to drop off their repeat prescription.

There’s a small team of volunteers in Harnham, via the Harnham Neighbourhood Association, who will make sure your prescription gets to Bemerton Heath Surgery, from some collection points.

Please email me if you need assistance with this service and the team will gladly help you.
