[email protected] or telephone: 0116 454 1001 East-West Link Road : A Phoenix from the Ashes The East-West Link Road in its various forms has been an idea since 1916. The most recent serious attempt to build a road bridge across Leicester’s green lungs of Aylestone Meadows was in the early nineties when Bede Island was being regenerated. Fortunately, fierce local opposition and ever increasing costs caused councillors at County Hall who were then responsible for building new roads, to abandon the idea. However, Leicester City Council has been consulting about including it in the next Local Plan. The Local Plan is an attempt by the City Council to meet the needs of its citizens for homes, jobs and leisure for the next 15 years. Another round of consultation on the next stage of the Local Plan will take place later this year. The current proposed route is from Narborough Road along Evesham Road and through Aylestone Meadows to Aylestone Road. It will then cross St. Mary’s to join with Saffron Lane. A local campaign group called “End of the Road LE3” wants the City Council to remove it from any future Local Plan.

The quantity used was la drachm. The child took the chloroform well at first, keeping a good colour and no alarming signs appeared whilst the abdomen was thoroughly explored, both externally with the hands and also by passing a soft flexible catheter into the bowel. About half a pint of soap and water was next gently injected into the bowel, the body of the child being raised. It was at this stage that the face was noticed to become blue and the breathing stopped. The chloroform was put on one side and artifioial respira- tion, inversion, flicking the chest with a wet towel, were tried without success for 35 minutes. The heart stopped abotut the same time as the respiration. Po8t-mortem Examination 48 Hours after Death.-Body well nourished, rigor mortis passing off.
