The noise problem near the rail bridge raised its head again yesterday and Network Rail swiftly undertook noise surveying yesterday afternoon; hopefully matters will be satisfactorily resolved very soon. A meeting with City Council Environmental Health, Network Rail, Police & others takes place tomorrow.
I understand that the public inquiry in respect of the Tay Rope Works planning application (of which I moved refusal, with considerable backing from local residents) will take place over three days this June.
With regard to the damaged pole in Paton's Lane I reported earlier (click on headline above to view original story) I had the following feedback from the City Council's Planning & Transportation Department yesterday:
"The road inspector for the area confirmed that the pole was removed yesterday (06/02) and the footway repaired. The pole will not be re-erected as the "No Waiting" plate is not required to enforce the double yellow line parking restrictions."
And ... good news received by e-mail also yesterday on Commercial Street trees! :
"This is a quick e-mail to let you know that trees seem to have popped up overnight outside the Children's Hearings Centre at the bottom of Commercial Street. Thanks again for all your campaigning and endless letter etc. to the utilities companies!"
