After a complaint from a constituent Councillor Brian Silvester has taken action to have a grit bin provided and lights repaired on and around the Foot/Cycle Bridge crossing the A500 in Willaston. Councillor Silvester said," At this time of year the footbridge does get very icy and is dangerous for users. I am grateful to the Cheshire East Council for providing the grit box and repairing the lights. I am pleased that local users have offered to spread the grit when necessary.( See below) Pedestrians and cyclists will now be able to use the bridge safely."
Willaston Grant Award Welcomed
Willaston Borough Councillor, Brian Silvester has welcomed a grant for £300 from Cheshire East Council for the Willaston Community Opportunities Group(COG). Councillor Silvester said," The application was for the design and printing of the final two local walk leaflets in a series of three, the first being funded by their Parish Plan Implementation Grant. The total cost of the project was £500. The Group had no funds of their own but had raised £200 in sponsorship. They had requested £300 and this was awarded in full. The first walk leaflet was very successful and led to many local people and visitors putting on their walking boots, which is a very healthy form of recreation. The Willaston Community Opportunities Group do excellent work and I am very pleased that their efforts are receiving external support."
