Thames Water – Reservoir Consultation
Thames Water has launched a 12-week consultation on the proposed South East Strategic Reservoir Option (SESRO). The consultation which runs until 28th August 2024 is available on their website: https://thames-wrmp.co.uk/sesro along with dates of community information events.
Grass Verges
The Lower Churchyard, the play area and village hall frontage were all cut the week commencing 3rd June. The verges have been cut around the edges and that will continue until around the end of August when it will be cut and what’s left taken away. In future years, the perimeter will be cut earlier in the season.
We are aware that some of the grown grass verges may cause poor visibility at some road junctions. If you come across this please can you report via Fix My Street, using the category for grass and hedges.
