Village Centre: work in progress
The project is progressing very well, with works currently slightly ahead of programme and within budget. This phase is due to be complete at the end of May. We hope that residents are not too inconvenienced by site operations.
If you have any comments please use the form below.
Work to commence on the village centre project
Following a detailed tender process just before Christmas, Landscaping contractor RHD Construction is to be awarded the contract and will be starting some preliminary works within the next couple of weeks.
These works will consist of some alterations to the trees and shrubs behind the McColls shop. This work will be carried out in advance of the main contract to avoid disturbing birds during the nesting season. The following letter will be posted to adjacent properties in the next few days.
