The pedestrian/cycle refuge island at the top of Ipswich road which I have been pressing for for a couple of years,   is finally being built as i write . I have funded from it from my Quality of Life funding.

The solar-powered flashing ‘30 ‘sign for halfway down  Ipswich Road (just before the blind bend) which I have also been fighting for  since I was first elected has been ordered and should be installed shortly. Again this was funded from my Quality of Life money.

Once these are in place we need to revisit the difficulties with speeding in Suffolk and look at what needs to happen next.

I’m very very pleased to be able to announce the temporary closure of Footpath 6 Woodbridge (Martlesham Creek) from Kyson Point westwards to Footpath 11/12 Martlesham for resurfacing! This mudbath stretch of the path is a nighmare for walkers in all but the driest weather,  and I have ben pestering the relevant  officer for a while now to see what she could do.

Hopefully its closure until February for proper building up and resurfacing of the quagmire it has become  will result  in many happy years walking for both residents and visitors!
