I am a retired Chartered Chemist, a Member of the Royal Society of Chemistry and a Member of the Chartered Quality Institute. For the last 15 years I have been Chair of the Planning Committee of Brickhill Parish Council, an urban parish council in the north of Bedford. 2 I have also been Chair of the Cycling Campaign for North Bedfordshire (CCNB) for the last four years and Vice-Chair for the previous 14 years. 3 CCNB has been promoting cycling and campaigning for cycle infrastructure in the Bedford area since 1992. 4 CCNB does not object to Network Rail's proposed rebuild of the Bromham Road railway bridge to allow the Midland Main Line to be electrified as far as Corby, only to the plans absence of a dual use footway/cycleway across the bridge. 5 Bedford has always been a 'Town of Cyclists'. 5.1 Way back in 1935 a Ministry of Transport census showed that cycles accounted for 80% of vehicular traffic in Bedford, similar to levels found in the Netherlands. 5.2 In 1945 a traffic census found that 'for 10 minutes in one midday period cyclists passed the census takers at the rate of three thousand per hour'.

  • Preliminary Report on the Archaeological Investigations at Northampton Road, Brackley, Northamptonshire
    Albion Archaeology Preliminary report on the archaeological investigations at Northampton Road, Brackley, Northamptonshire Photo1: Aerial view of the Northampton Road development area from south Introduction Between June and October 2014 Albion Archaeology undertook open-area excavation in advance of mixed-use development by Albion Land plc on land off Northampton Road, Brackley. An area of c. 3ha was excavated divided into two main parts of unequal size, exposing an unenclosed middle Iron Age settlement. The main part of the settlement extended over c. 1.6ha and was in the northern excavation area, possibly continuing beyond the limit of the development area (see figure at the back of this report). It was characterised by roundhouses, ditched enclosures, post-built structures and an abundance of storage pits. Similar features were found to the south and in the southern excavation area, although these were smaller in number and occurred in a much lower density than in the main settlement area. Roundhouses Evidence for c. 20 roundhouses was identified. They were defined by pennanular gullies with E-facing entrances. The area defined by the gullies ranged from 8–15m in diameter, whilst the gullies themselves were generally shallow and only a few had been redug. The majority of the gullies are assumed to have served a drainage function with no structural slots associated with the outer walls being identified. Preliminary report on the archaeological investigations at Northampton Road, Brackley, Northants 1 (Mike Luke, Jo Barker and Iain Leslie. Albion report 2016-66) Albion Archaeology Many contained postholes which may have provided roof support or internal divisions.
