Melford Passage

[malcolmchurch]

A few months ago, a friend of mine living in Dawsons Heights requested the following work :-

"I wonder if any of the councillors for College Ward can help regarding Melford Passage (a footpath connecting the top of Belvoir Road with Melford Road).

This footpath was paved over a few years ago which was a great improvement.

There are steep steps at the Belvoir Road end and, in wet or icy conditions, these steps can be dangerous and there really should be a handrail on these steps to make them more manageable. I doubt that this would cost much money and it would greatly improve Melford Passage."

I am pleased to report that this work is now complete with handrails on both sides of the steps. Many thanks to Andy Simmons and his councillor colleagues in College Ward for pushing this work through and making the steps much safer.

Here here (or is it hear, hear) - delighted to see and use the handrails in the rain last Saturday morning - thanks to the councillors for those.
