There were towards twenty "grating trees" over the three main car park areas, although not all had survived into recent times.Balls. Although I'm not sure I remember any trees there.
Just driven *down/along/up the new road, seems a long way into Castlefields to get onto the thing.
The only reason I can see myself using it for is to go directly ti Lidl, without having to go round the houses so to speak.
Just how much of the marshes has it taken up, if at all?
My understanding was an area at the back of the car park would be handed back to nature and increase the floodable area. Maybe we will see an increase in tree planting along the side of the new route to help soak water up as well as emissions? I have 6 saplings/small trees in my garden that will be planted locally. Imagine if we all did that!!
I've planted 3 trees in my small garden and 6 at the allotment. I have no more space. Plant trees people!
On the left an Oak tree I planted in 2009. On right how it looked last summer. It's gone bloody barmy
You live in the wrong county then.Pollarded ?? ... I don't engage in strange sexual practices with trees ....
Yes indeed, and wasn't it blatantly obvious that Kingsway would NOT have been built as a duel carriageway if it was only ever meant as access to half a dozen cul de sacs off Martin Drive and Redgrave Drive ?I heard today that householders on Castlefields are claiming compensation, up to £6k, from the Highways Agency for the access road devaluing their properties.
Surely their solicitors would have advised them of the road wouldn't they? If not shouldn't the solicitors be paying the compensation not the taxpayer?
I would have thought householders on Doxey Road would have more of a claim if they have been in residence for some time.
