New Lighting on St Neots Road
Dear residents,
Beginning over a year ago, Hardwick Parish Council has been in dialogue with Hills, the developers of Capstone Fields to improve the Lighting around the entrance to the development and along St Neots Road to the corner of Hall Drive. We are pleased to publish a schematic (see below) showing the extent of the new lighting. We originally asked for new lighting down to and including the corner of Millers Way but this has not yet been agreed.
Just so the village is clear, neither South Cambs District Council not Cambridge County Council support the installation of any new lighting in the village to remedy perceived dark areas and inform us they have no statutory duty to do so.Please bear in mind what is sometimes seen as poor lighting can be the interference of overhead tree cover. Let us know where you believe a tree is obscuring lighting.
St Neot’s Road Layby consultation
Dear residents,
Please find below notice from the Parish Council. Residents and businesses along St Neot’s road will be contacted about any comments on the matter, so please keep an eye out for a leaflet or avid Parish Councillor to have a chat.
Street Naming at Capstone Fields
Dear resident,
We have some interesting news regarding street names of Capstone Fields – which is the new development of 155 dwellings happening on St Neot’s Road.Hardwick Parish Council has asked the developers to name the streets in the development in memory of deceased former residents of the village.The Parish Council has considered residents who have now sadly passed away but who it believes made a significant and special contribution to the village during their lifetime.This Parish Council proposal has been agreed by the developers and by South Cambridgeshire District Council and the street names will be:
| Street name | In memory of |
|---|---|
| Howells Way | Lynne Howells |
| Lofty Close | Ann Lofty |
| Turner Close | Ken Turner |
| Bhachu Drive | Jagmohan Bhachu and Tejinder Bhachu |
| Barker Way | Ray Barker |
Any queries about the above, please contact the clerk
