Please Respond to Barton Greenways TRO
Many will be aware of the road works in Comberton that are part of Comberton Greenways project. It is important that all in Barton take note of the Barton Greenways plans as many elements will be similar to those in Comberton. Now is your last chance to comment on the plans by responding to the Traffic Regulation Order (TRO) PR1001. (See below for the links.) As your representatives on the Parish Council, we will also respond. The principal of making Barton safer for cyclists is sound, but the plans also need to make the village safer for pedestrians and horse riders whilst keeping traffic moving. The deadline for comments is Thursday 21st March.
