  • The Vicar's Letter
    The Vicar’s Letter The Vicarage, Waltham Road, (corner of Foliejohn Way) Woodlands Park Telephone 01628 822000 Dear Friends, I have just heard the speaker in a ‘God slot’ on the radio talking about death. He began by suggesting that it is commonly assumed that Christians don’t really believe in death at all. Instead, he said, people think that Christians believe that when we die we go on living in some other realm or some disembodied form. And he went on: “Just to be clear: I believe nothing of the sort.... When you die, you die.” At this point, I was almost ready to applaud. Popular ideas about death, many of which are vaguely thought to be ‘Christian’, are often a long way from what the Bible really teaches about death. In particular, the idea that death is no big deal is actually a big lie, the product of wishful thinking and a misguided desire to offer some sort of comfort to the bereaved. But then the speaker went on to suggest that we should not find the reality of death depressing, because he felt that it is actually essential to living life fully. And that is where I have to part company with him, because the Bible — while certainly commending the wisdom of living life in the conscious awareness of its eventual end — sees death as a monstrous evil: a very real tragedy and a very real enemy.

  • Overview of Bridge Maintenance and Strengthening Works for 11-12
    Overview of Bridge Maintenance and Strengthening Works for 11-12 General Management of Bridges/Structures The Royal Borough undertakes regular inspections of bridges and other highway structures to ensure public safety under the Highways Act section 41 in accordance with bridge code of practice 2005. These inspections identify works related to the condition of the structure and make recommendations for refurbishment, replacement or maintenance. Regular works include assessments that feed into the strengthening works programme; asset management activities to improve the processes for management of the structures’ stock and any temporary weight limits required prior to strengthening. These assessments may also consider the suitability of a structure to carry an abnormal load (e.g. mobile cranes). The Code of Practice for Highway Structures has also identified the need to complete detailed structural reviews of bridges every 12 years, to ensure that the load assessment remains to current standards, and is based on the current condition of the bridge. The following five structures assessments are overdue and have been identified as requiring an updated assessment in 2011/12 to comply with the National Requirements, and ensure they remain safe and serviceable. B418 Broomhall Lane – Sunningdale B422 Charters road – Sunningdale B425 Howe lane - Holyport B879 Plough Inn, B376 Horton road – Datchet B896 Fifteen Arch B3022 Slough Road - Eton.
