DRIVERS BEWARE

New powers shortly will be available to the City Council to enforce traffic viloations, one area of regualr offences is the no entry on Christchurch St. Drivers often totally ignore the no entry sign and turn onto City Road and sometimes go the wrong way down the no entry on Temple Street..

If you notice that the CCTV camera is often pointing down, its not broken, its gaining evidence.

If you are caught commting the offence, you will be fined.Lets make Fenton safer for everyone and drive sensibly and within the law.

FENTON MARKET EXTENSION ?      default

A piece of land behind the advertising hordings on the City Road car park has been identified as a possible extension to the popular Fenton open market on Thursday. The land was believed to be in the ownership of the Lichfield Diocise but is now believed to be owned by JC Decaux the owners of the hordings.

Council officers are trying to establish whether the land could be either purchased or leased by the Council to extend the market site.

Currently the land is occasionally used as a drinking den by teenagers, the site if accquired would enable the market to move back increasing its size by nearly 50%, additionally if this were possible the market could move away from the car park entrance, making a safer route for pedestrians.

Current mood: Cool

With the help of funding from the Councils Streetscene programme ward Councillors were able to direct money to town centre improvements such has additional litter bins, seating, signs.

Money was also spent on landscaping and a concrete plynth for the recycling bins adjacent to the City Road car park.

In previous years money had been spent on floral displays and hanging basket trees.
