    Minutes of a Meeting with Bedford Borough Council Highways Department, Borough Cllr. T. Wootton, and representatives from Staploe, Little Staughton, Colmworth and Bolnhurst and Keysoe Parish Councils on Wednesday 19th February 2020 at 2pm at Keysoe Village Hall, Keysoe Row West, Bedford MK44 2JE Present: Andrew Prigmore (Bedford Borough Council Highways Dept.), Borough Cllr. T. Wootton, Lucy Crawford (Clerk to Staploe Parish Council), Cllr. Veronica Zwetsloot (Staploe Parish Council), Cllr. Kevin Head (Little Staughton Parish Council), Cllr. Gordon Johnstone (Wyboston Parish Council), Cllr. Martina Perry (Bolnhurst and Keysoe Parish Council) and Cllr. Beverley Brightman (Colmworth Parish Council). Apologies: Gareth Turner (Bedford Borough Council Highways Department) 1. Consider the introduction of a 50mph limit on Bushmead Road All the parish councils represented supported the introduction of reduced speed limits on the Bushmead Road to a maximum of 50mph but KH suggested it should be 40mph in places. They recounted witnessing several nasty accidents on the road (one requiring an airlift to hospital). They also recounted many near misses some of which they believed were due to large HGV’s passing at speed when the road is not wide enough and cars being forced into the middle of the road by potholes. They acknowledged that recent repairs had improved the worst areas of the road but were concerned that some areas with failing patches had not been addressed. Andrew Prigmore explained that the worst areas had been repaired at a cost of approximately £70K but they had to choose the worst areas due to their limited budget. He reported that police data showed that none of the accidents on the road had been directly caused by excess speed.

  • Canon John Laird
    Blackberry Lane Lingfield The College of Surrey St Barnabas RH7 6NJ 01342 870260 www.st-barnabas.org.uk We can’t thank you enough The response to the letter from College Patron Dame Judi Dench along with that from Myrtle Hall (left) has been truly wonderful, raising over £100,000. When Dame Judi (below) learned of how the College had helped Myrtle she was so impressed that she wrote to our supporters urging them to help us in our work. “I am so grateful to everyone for their generosity,” said College Chairman, Sir Paul Britton. “This shows that people really appreciate what we do and want to ensure that we can help as many as possible.” Regular readers may remember that Myrtle’s story was featured in the Bulletin last year. She was a trained primary school teacher before spending many years as a missionary in Nigeria where she helped to found two schools for physically handicapped children. Sadly, her mobility has declined, but the power wheelchair, for which the College fundraising team raised the money, has enabled her to retain her independence. “I am thrilled that my letter has helped to raise so much support for the College,” she said. “The care that we receive here is wonderful and I am delighted that this will mean it can continue to be offered to those most in need.” Characters from the College: Canon John Laird By Cliff Caswell It started as a means to gain secular experience, but Canon John Laird’s teaching gift has been an important feature throughout his ministry.

TO VERIFY THE MINUTES OF THE PREVIOUS PARISH COUNCIL MEETING These were approved. 4. MATTERS ARISING Play Equipment Quotes – PCllr Browning reported that these are on hold for the duration of the lockdown. Average Speed Cameras – BCllr Royden has confirmed that our application will be added to the list for consideration. He explained that they are still extremely rare across the country. The cameras are extremely effective but also very expensive at around £75,000 and the Borough Council receives no funding from the fines produced. He appreciated the offer of financial assistance and this demonstrates the commitment of the local community. However, he explained that the list is growing every year, & there are about 90 site requests across the Borough. This is at a time when the Council is seeking to find £27million cuts not least to cover the cost of the Covid crisis. He was therefore not sure when the next schemes will be affordable. Bereavement - condolences sent. School Nativity Project – grant application declined. SID Risk Assessment – circulated. SID data sharing with Pertenhall & Ravensden – Pertenhall have agreed, Ravensden yet to reply (meeting 19/1/21) 5.
