I am really pleased to say that we have now received confirmation from Leicestershire County Council that Footpath O89, which runs from the new Money Hill Car Park to the top of North Street, should be open for use from Tuesday 9th December.
 
A big thank you to the Town Council working group, made up of the Ashby Footpath Group, local councillors, and my office, who have been pushing to avoid any unnecessary extension of the closure. (Not all are pictured)
 
I have requested confirmation from LCC to determine whether the re-opening will be the upgraded path that has been discussed or the path as it is now.
 
Once I have confirmation of this, I will of course, share this with the Town Council and local community.

I managed to speak about the lack of local bus provision across North West Leicestershire again recently, this time highlighting the long-gone services that used to connect Heather with Ibstock and other local areas. (Link to the full speech in the comments)

I'm aware that Arriva have recently announced some further changes to services in North West Leicestershire, and I want to hear what this means for you. Please drop me an email with your thoughts on the changes that are coming in April to [email protected]. (You can view the changes here: www.arrivabus.co.uk/latest-news/improving-our-services-for-nw-leicestershire

I will continue battling for better buses from private operators and Leicestershire County Council. We are giving them the cash and powers to enhance and protect our services for communities like Heather. For too long, our communities have been disconnected bus route by bus route.
