Contact Officer: Paul Salmon [email protected] Public/Exempt: Public Wards Affected: Potton Function of: Council CORPORATE IMPLICATIONS Council Priorities: The petition is in relation to the safe and efficient use of the highway network Financial: None from this report Legal: None from this report Risk Management: None from this report Staffing (including Trades Unions): None from this report Equalities/Human Rights: None from this report Community Safety: None from this report Sustainability: None from this report Budget and Delivery: Estimated cost: n/a Budget: n/a Expected delivery: n/a Background and Information 1. A petition has been received, signed by 41 people, requesting the Council to lower the existing 40mph speed limit to 30mph in Eyeworth in line with Central Government guidance. 2. Speed limit advice issued by the Department for Transport does suggest that local authorities should treat 30mph as the default speed limit for villages. For the most part, Central Bedfordshire Council has adopted that principle, but we have to consider the individual circumstances to determine if a 30mph speed limit is reasonable and there will be a reasonable level of compliance.

A warm welcome to our visitors, who we face for the 3rd but not final time of the season! Well, sadly our FA Vase run has now come to an end. We exited the competition at the same stage we did in 2018, the Quarter Finals. A 4-3 defeat away at the hands of Corinthian FC. We were backed by such fantastic support, with the crowd pretty much all Leighton! We really appreciate and it has shown just how much everyone has come together in recent weeks. We want that to stay, as we still have 15 league games and 2 Cup Semi-Finals to play! We need your help as we make a big push, with the end of the campaign not far away. In other news, tonight is the third fixture between ourselves and Potton of the season. It's a win for Potton and a win for us so far, both of which came in cups.

  • Combined-Parishes-Profile-Final-2
    Introduction to Profile From the Vicar of St Andrew’s Biggleswade and Rural Dean of Biggleswade. Thank you for your interest in the position of Associate Priest. This is a newly created position where it is envisaged that the Vicar of Biggleswade will also accept responsibility as priest-in-charge of the rural parishes of Dunton, Wrestlingworth and Eyeworth working collaboratively with the appointed priest. We are seeking a prayerful and reflective colleague and team member who welcomes exciting opportunities and challenges. The parishes are distinct in character, but they are all excited at the prospect of working supportively with a new Associate Priest. The person appointed will need to develop and communicate a vision as to how the parishes can best work together to share God’s love. It is envisaged that the Associate Priest will spend 0.5 of their time in three adjacent rural communities; and the remainder of their ministry just south west in the rapidly growing parish of Biggleswade, a traditional market town expanding at an exponential rate as new residential developments are established. It is anticipated that modern 4-bedroomed accommodation will be available in the village of Dunton. A willingness to work with all ages, and participation in a range of worship styles is essential, as is enthusiasm to explore new ways of ‘being church’ within our neighbourhoods. We hope the successful candidate will be happy to provide a visible presence in each of the parishes and encourage an openness to embrace change. A sense of humour would be helpful, as would a willingness to be vulnerable and a preparedness to take risks.
