Due to be completed by Friday, March 17th, the work on the road will be started on Monday, February 13th with funding secured by County Councillor, Christian Wakeford, in early 2016.

Councillor Wakeford said: “I’m glad that I was able to persuade the County Council to fulfill its promise and make sure that all of the road is resurfaced. Local residents have been suffering for too long because of the state of this road and it’s about time something was done about it.
