Bench Twerton Hight Street

The bench outside the learning centre in Twerton High Street has been controversial for quite some time and was temporally removed before it was put back at my request.

The issue is that there has been some anti social behaviour related to the bench.

1) The bench has been used in the day time by some alcoholics in the area but this is a police issue to move them on and not a reason to remove the bench I have chased the Police to resolve this issue.

2) The Bench has been used late at night by young people travelling back from town and noise has been generated this is another Police issue and no reason to remove the bench.

The bench is used by many elderly residents in the day time when visiting local shops and I believe that until we have an alternative this bench should remain.

Cars causes Havoc at Shaws Way


A car has crashed through the new railings by Naish House on Shaws Way after loosing control coming down Poolemead Road just before 8am this morning from information that I have received from Police on duty.


If the timing is correct it's a relief that it was not later with Children going to the local schools.


I have chased up the matter with highways to have the dangerous posts removed.

Wedgewood Road

I have asked for the missing  Road sign that details the location of 2/26 Wedgewood Road to be replaced as soon as possible.

This area is difficult to find the location of houses as it is and I would hope that the sign is soon back in Place.

Newton Road Bollards

I have asked that the wooden bollards that have been knocked out on Newton Road are replaced as soon as possible.

I am not sure why thes bollards are not in place and if they have been deliberately knocked out but they will soon be replaced.

I am working with Curo Housing group to resolve the parking on the grass on other parts of Newton road that is making the road looked very unsightly with churned up grass..
