LATEST NEWS:

 

Allotment water supplies:  Plans are in hand to provide water supplies to West Runton allotment site and the council had hoped to have this in place for the 2010 growing season. Unfortunately this has been held up by the need for an easement deed to put pipes across private land. The Moyes Close Site water connection was completed on 23rd February 2010.  The stand pipe is now fully operational.

West Runton Bridge Strengthening Scheme. Some work will begin in late August 2010. The main works are scheduled to start on 8th November 2010,  After Christmas the road will be closed for six weeks.  There will be pedestrian access.  Work is to be completed by March 2011.  Traffic signals will then control as there will be single line traffic over the bridge.
