Last month, I was pleased to confirm that, in adon to the upgrading and adoption of the Marchfield Crescent pavements recently, Marchfield Road’s footpath would be similarly upgraded – and I am pleased to see this has now commenced – see above. I am also pleased that the nearby Marchfield Terrace will have its pavements improved in the 2012/13 financial year.
It was through my insistence that the City Council increased its funding on unadopted pavements two and a half fold to £500 000 a year. It is making a real difference to poorly conditioned pavements in the West End and I will continue to campaign for improved pavements across the West End.
