Carlton Dene footpath: Finishing Off

One of our major grips as local councillors is when utilities (hello Thames) dig up bits of Maida Vale and then disappear off somewhere else for weeks on end.

So, we weren't terribly impressed when the Council did the same. Although the adoption of the Carlton Dene footpath by the Council was most welcome - and has resulted in a really nice new surface - it wasn't acceptable to local residents that various bits of exposed piping could be seen all the way down the new path.

We've been in negotiations with the Council's Transportation department for the past few weeks and discovered the exposed piping is the result of the lighting - and can only be sorted once additional parts are delivered at the end of July. As a result, we've agreed that the pathway will be temporarily re-instated in the interim, until the parts are available. This should be done shortly.

Please let us know if you have any issue with any street in Maida Vale and, if we can, we shall sort it!
