  • West Bretton Parish Council Chairman's Report 2019/2020
    WEST BRETTON PARISH COUNCIL CHAIRMAN'S REPORT 2019/2020 Introduction Over the past year the Parish Council has met in the village hall once a month, with the usual exception of August. We were also unable to meet in April due to restrictions put in place due to the COVID-19 emergency. We are happy residents attend our meetings and time is set aside for them to raise issues and ask questions. The Parish Council filled two vacancies arising after the May election so that the council has its full complement of six Parish Councillors. Highways Issues relating to highways continued to feature regularly in the business of the Parish Council during the past year. Further damage to a resident's boundary stone wall at the junction of Bretton Lane and Huddersfield Road caused by vehicles turning at the junction raised continued concerns about the number of HGVs using Bretton Lane. A meeting took place in October with officers from the highway authority to identify the status of proposed road safety improvements. No progress has been made in reducing the speed limit on Huddersfield Road to the south of the village and the highway authority are having second thoughts about imposing restrictions. In December the parish council was consulted on safety measures at the junction of Huddersfield Road and Bretton Lane. The road markings associated with this scheme have now been laid and we await the proposed associated variable message signing. The Parish Council continues to respond to residents' concerns on highways issues and monitors progress by maintaining an action plan, updated regularly, where issues raised are identified and progress in resolving them is monitored.
