Hour-long delays in major roadworks ringing Perth ruined the Easter weekend for many families.
The congestion on the Perth bypass and A9 between Broxden and Inveralmond roundabouts was the worst experienced since work started to create the city’s new link road.
During peak times, drivers approaching the bypass have experienced significant disruption with 10 to 20 minute delays at all times. That rose to 40 minutes during peak times, but the Easter weekend brought new levels of misery with delays of an hour reported.
The frustration has been compounded by work on the A85 Crieff Road and a road closure at Lochty. In addition, some motorists have chosen to use a back road that passes Huntingtower Castle as a ‘rat run’ to try to avoid the roadworks.
Motorists and passengers took to social media to express their anger at the weekend.
Traffic Scotland kept in close contact with contractors to provide hourly updates on the length of delays through the roadworks.
One local motorist claimed the delays appeared to be lengthening as work is progressing.
“It is bad enough for motorists who are passing through but for locals it is even worse as the roadworks are simply unavoidable,” he said.
“It has reached the point that if you want to venture out it’s important to plan your journey or hit queues the moment you leave the house.”
Councillor Henry Anderson said he was aware of the weekend traffic delays and revealed he had been looking at social media to gauge motorists’ comments.
“I noticed that some people said they were delayed up to 40 minutes due to the roadworks, and that is unfortunate,” he said.
“There will be some drivers who have meetings or appointments but hopefully the outcome will be a better road system around Perth.”
Mr Anderson stressed that some residents living in Lochty had raised concerns about the road closure there which has seen Perth or southbound traffic being funnelled through the bypass roadworks.
And he also highlighted problems caused by some motorists using the minor road beside Huntingtower Castle to avoid part of the work.
Councillor Alan Livingstone added the traffic “is a nightmare” due to the A9/A85 roadworks.
“My wife and myself were caught up in it on Friday and it was horrendous,” he commented.
“The police and the council are aware of the situation at Huntingtower and road safety mitigation measures will be put in place there,” he added.
The Inveralmond/Broxden roadworks will create a new A9/A85 junction, and are part of the £35 million Cross Tay Link Road.

Suddenly pervious, or no-fines, concrete is the hottest thing in the concrete industry. Motivated by the need to control the runoff of rainwater, developers and building owners are considering using pervious for parking lots, driveways, and even residential subdivision streets. Pervious is fairly simple, but it's far from foolproof; when designed and built without knowledge of the proper techniques, it can and has failed.
To move the technology a step ahead, the National Ready Mixed Concrete Association sponsored a Concrete Technology Forum focused on pervious concrete. Held in Nashville on May 24 and 25, 2006, the Forum drew an audience of 250 people from across the country. CONCRETE CONSTRUCTION was a major conference sponsor (along with our sister magazines THE CONCRETE PRODUCER and PUBLIC WORKS). Speakers looked at the benefits, design methods, mix designs, and construction techniques.
Leading off the forum, Bruce Ferguson from the University of Georgia, highlighted why porous pavements in general have recently gained popularity, and focused on pervious concrete, noting that success is far from a given. “At the current state of technology, porous concrete's installed quality depends vitally on a qualified installer.” Ferguson stated that “Porous pavements' potential application is vast...primarily because of public concern about and legal requirements for stormwater management. Properly applied porous pavements can also enlarge urban tree rooting space, reduce the urban heat-island effect, reduce traffic noise, increase driving safety, and improve appearance.”
Turning to the design of pervious concrete, Michael Leming, North Carolina State University, described “active” mitigation techniques, meaning that the pavement is designed not only to allow rainwater to drain but also to actually store the water to prevent runoff. Depending on how much water is expected, and the soil characteristics, the base layer below the pervious concrete needs to be designed to store water as well, or even to drain. Sloping pavement surfaces can have a significant impact on the storage capacity.
A valuable presentation on design was also given by Manoj Chopra from the University of Central Florida. In summary, he presented a model specification for pervious that included the following portion on construction:
Subgrade Material—The top 6 inches shall be composed of granular or gravely, predominantly sandy soil. It is desirable for the soil to contain no more than a moderate amount of silt or clay. Granular or gravel sub-base may be placed over subgrade. Subgrade shall have a permeability of no less than 1 inch per hour.
Site Preparation—Subgrade shall be leveled to provide a uniform construction surface with a consistent slope not more than 5%. It is recommended that the slope be as flat as possible. After leveling, soils shall be compacted to a minimum density of 92% of a maximum dry density as determined by ASTM D 1557 or AASHTO T 180.
Forms— Forms may be either wood or steel and shall be the depth of the pavement. Forms shall have sufficient strength and stability to support pavement and mechanical equipment without deformation. The edge of existing pavement may be used as a form.
Placing and Finishing—Mixers shall be operated at the speed designated as mixing speed by the manufacturer. The portland cement aggregate mixture may be transported or mixed onsite and shall be used within 45 minutes of the introduction of mix water. Concrete shall be deposited as close to its final position as practicable and such that fresh concrete enters the mass of previously placed concrete. An internal vibrator should not be used to consolidate concrete. Following strike-off, the concrete shall be compacted to form level, utilizing a steel roller made from nominal 10-inch diameter steel pipe of ¼-inch thickness. The roller shall have enough weight to provide a minimum of 10 psi vertical force.


LAKE CHARLES, LA (KPLC) - Lake Charles Port members decided to not take action on any items related to a possible cooperative endeavor with City of Lake Charles to develop lakefront property.
"The property City is currently looking at another developer's proposal and we didn't want to interfere with any decision that the City has to make there. But we are still very interested in developing along the lakefront," said Bill Rase, Lake Charles Port Director. "We have had some informal negotiations with them and talked about several issues that might develop and might not develop. So I think it's just time to leave it at that and let the City finish its due diligence with the other group and if there's any interest in talking with us we'll be available."
Company Mardi Gras Boardwalk has proposed purchasing the old Harrah's property for $4,250,000. They are proposing a mixed-use development with entertainment, restaurant and shopping venues along with condos.
While the Port expressed interest in developing a Kemah, Texas style boardwalk on the property, Rase said their main goal is to help facilitate in the development of the National Hurricane Museum and Science Center (NHMSC).
Gray Stream, NHMSC board chairman, welcomed the partnership.
"I'm really appreciative that an economic leader in the region, if not the economic leader in the region, has once again stepped up in a new way with its support to Lake Charles and Southwest Louisiana and basically acknowledged that there's an important impression that we make on the region and rest of the country with our lakefront," said Stream.
If they were to enter into a contract with the City of Lake Charles, the Port has pledged $250,000 to conduct a market study to determine the best fit for the lakefront. Rase said regardless of what happens with the old Harrah's property the Port is ready to assist in any way they can.
"The opportunity I think has been a long time coming with the citizens of Southwest Louisiana. And the opportunity still exists to develop that property. With or without the Mardi Gras Boardwalk situation there's property out there that could be developed. Of course anything you put there first impacts what comes behind it so we will just have to see how we feel once we see what the City decides to do with that development," said Rase.


Whiteburn have lodged a Planning Application Notice (PAN) with Dundee City Council for the former Dundee College site on Constitution. A consultation date has also been confirmed.
The public consultation will take place on Thursday 11 December 2014, from 2-8pm at St. Mary Magdalene’s Church, Dudhope Crescent.
Members from the Whiteburn team will be on hand to provide information and answer questions. All welcome.

A MULTI AGENCY meeting has been held to look at possible solutions for road and lane maintenance work to be carried out in a Moray village.
Several attempts have been made to find a solution to community concerns over repair work that is required on roads and lanes in Newmill.
Moray MSP Richard Lochhead became involved in attempts to find a solution after hearing from several constituents in the village last year – now he has chaired a meeting involving the Moray Council, Highlands and Islands Enterprise, Newmill Community Association and local councillor and leader of the SNP opposition group at Moray Council, Gary Coull.
The move follows “numerous” attempts to pressure the Newmill Estate, who are responsible for the affected roads, to take action – all have so far failed.
At the meeting, which was held last week, a commitment was made by Moray Council to provide an estimated cost to bring the roads up to a standard that would allow them to be ‘adopted’ by the local authority.
Mr Lochhead said: “The community do not even know who the landowners are and numerous requests for repair made via the local factor have unfortunately been turned down.
“This leaves the community in the undesirable situation where they themselves need to look at alternatives – and I welcome the Council’s promise to provide an estimate for the costs involved to bring the roads and lanes up to an adoptable standard, as well as HIE’s offer to work with Newmill Community Association to further examine options available to the village.”
Councillor Coull added: “The meeting we held was extremely constructive and thanks must go to Richard Lochhead for bringing everyone together. I am glad that HIE have committed to working with the Community Association to see if a long term solution to the roads problem can be found.
“It’s not good enough for an absent land owner to neglect their land in this way. It is the members of the Newmill community that suffer because of that and I hope that a solution can be found for the good of the people in the village.”
Chair of the Newmill Community Association, Rhona Patterson, added:
“We were delighted to be invited to be part of such a productive meeting and we look forward to working with the Council, HIE and Richard Lochhead, whose ongoing involvement we are extremely grateful for.”

OCOEE, Fla. - Driving down Bluford Avenue in Ocoee, it's hard not to notice the majestic Sylvester palm trees.
The unique-looking date palms, recognizable for a diamondlike pattern cut into the trunk, line the streets just a few feet apart from each other. There are dozens of them in front of Ocoee Middle School.
Ocoee City Manager Robert Frank said each tree costs $3,500.
Native palm trees, or cabbage palms, can be purchased and installed for a fraction of that cost, around $50 each, landscaper Doug Dickerman, owner of Paradigm Outdoor, told News 6.
"We can install 25 native palm trees for the price of one specimen date palm," Dickerman said.
Frank said the Sylvester date palm trees are part of Ocoee's redevelopment project.
"The landscape plan was narrowed down and selected during the downtown master plan development, public charrettes, public on-site walking tours and City Commission public presentations," Frank said. "I'm sure there were more inexpensive options, however, the landscape plans were presented in public for selection without ranking the cost of each tree. This is a once-in-a-century downtown redevelopment project, and I believe the landscape plan was selected with the belief that the tree cost variation amortized over a century or two was not a major consideration."
But it's not just Ocoee.
At almost every flyover, at many city entrances and at some major intersections, pricey palm trees line medians and curbs. And they're flanked by costly ground cover and expensive shrubs and plants.
Cities and counties call them "gateway features" that make a statement and set off the city or county.
Casselberry Deputy Director of Public Works Kelly Brock said the city worked with the Florida Department of Transportation and Seminole County on the U.S. 17-92 and State Road 436 flyover and the Red Bug Lake Road and State Road 436 flyover to select "enhanced" landscaping.
"The projects were built with enhanced landscaping largely because the city wanted them to be," Brock said. "Recognizing the aesthetic value of such an investment, we worked with FDOT and Seminole County to incorporate nice landscapes into these projects as they were being designed."
Seminole County said the total cost of landscaping at the Red Bug Lake Road flyover and vicinity cost nearly $1.7 million. The state of Florida Transportation Regional Incentive Program funded $1,369,157, and Seminole County paid the landscaping contractor $323,000, Seminole County's financial business administrator said.
And then part of the landscaping died.
Brock said Casselberry inherited major problems with the landscaping at the Red Bug Lake Road flyover when it took over maintenance of the landscaping from Seminole County.
Irrigation was faulty, the soil was bad and, as a result, shrubs and plants were dying, Brock said.
"Everything went wrong," Dickerman said. "In some spots, they were overwatering. You could watch the plants just die from lack of care. Some trees were planted in standing water. It never went well. Italian cypress, ligustrums, ornamental peanut, jasmine — it all died. The Italian cypress are incredibly expensive trees, and they were pulled out because they died."
Brock said Casselberry recently spent $99,326 to replant and modify the Red Bug Lake Road
Much of the expensive ground cover was replaced with low-maintenance sod.
Down the road at U.S. 17-92 and State Road 436, some of the jasmine ground cover that was installed in 2016, when the flyover was completed, has died and has not been replaced.
Dickerman suspects the jasmine died because of a lack of proper maintenance.
"To get the ground cover established, it takes a lot of manual labor to go in and actually pull the weeds," Dickerman said. "A lot of guys, instead of coming by and pulling the weed, they'll spray it with Roundup rather than bending over to pick it up. And when the Roundup hits the other plant (jasmine), it's dead. To do it right takes time and money. I can come by and spray Roundup on this whole median in 20 minutes by myself. It would take four guys 2 1/2 hours to weed it by hand to do it right," he said.
Brock said the U.S. 17-92 flyover is still new enough that it continues to being maintained by the landscape contractor who originally installed the landscaping, but soon Casselberry will take over the maintenance.
"With that in mind, we have planned and budgeted for maintenance of these flyovers and all of the various (rights of way) and medians that we maintain citywide," Brock said. "That is not to say we do not occasionally encounter unexpected issues and costs, but neither is that an issue unique to landscapes."
Brock said taxpayers will not be on the hook for improper landscaping maintenance, at least not in Casselberry.
"For landscapes that are the city’s maintenance responsibility, we have performance-based expectations of our contractors," Brock said. "For example, if, hypothetically, our contractor were to cause damage to plantings due to overspray or use of an inappropriate herbicide, we would typically expect them to replace the plantings in kind at no cost to the city."
FDOT officials said jasmine shrubs were recently replaced at the U.S. 17-92 flyover because they were not established. The original landscaping contractor paid for the replacement.
FDOT said sod was also replaced, at a cost of $6,902, because it wasn't established.
In 2016, FDOT said, it spent nearly $600,000 on sprinklers, shrubs and Sylvester palm trees at the U.S. 17-92 flyover.

About a month ago, I messaged you that the State of Texas was contemplating the removal of multiple unbuilt segments of the Grand Parkway near Friendswood from the 2020 Unified Transportation Program (UTP). TxDOT held a hearing in Austin on August 6 which included many Galveston County residents speaking against the removal. I’m happy to report that today (August 29), TxDOT voted on the final UTP and the sections near Friendswood were included. Once these sections are completed, and that will take many years, they will not only make a positive difference for a large number of daily commuters, but be available as a vital storm evacuation route. I’m grateful to everyone who let TxDOT know their opinion on this matter. It made a difference.

Trial run on Botanical Garden-Kalkaji ends, inspection soon
The Botanical Garden-Kalkaji section will also be Delhi Metro’s first-ever corridor to be operated using the communication based train control (CBTC) signalling technology which will facilitate movement of trains with a frequency of 90 to 100 seconds.noida Updated: Oct 12, 2017 23:24 IST
The Botanical Garden to Kalkaji Mandir section of the Botanical Garden-Janakpuri west line is all set to open by November-end.
According to the Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC), trials and testing on the 12.64km section has been completed and most of the mandatory clearances, required for inviting the commissioner of Metro rail safety (CMRS) to inspect, have been received.
“The papers for scrutiny and a detailed examination by CMRS are under submission to his office and after these are verified, examined and scrutinised in depth, further action is expected. In addition, since the application involves voluminous data of civil, electrical, signalling and track, the DMRC may also have to supply any additional information sought by the office of CMRS. After the entire process, it is expected that a suitable date for inspection will be indicated,” said a DMRC spokesperson.
With the opening of this section, residents of Noida will save at least 45 minutes of travelling time while going to south Delhi. The Botanical Garden metro station will emerge as the first-ever interchange metro station in the National Capital Region outside Delhi and it will remain the only one.
“Currently for travelling to south Delhi areas, they have to change trains at Mandi House (from Blue Line to Violet Line). However, with this new section, they will be able to travel directly to Kalkaji Mandir and save on valuable travelling time. Botanical Garden has been developed as NCR’s first-ever interchange station,” the spokesperson said.
This section will also be Delhi Metro’s first-ever corridor to be operated using the communication based train control (CBTC) signalling technology which will facilitate movement of trains with a frequency of 90 to 100 seconds.
Once the entire corridor from Botanical Garden till Janakpuri West (38.23km) is opened, commuters from Noida will be able to go to Gurgaon by changing trains at Hauz Khas. This will help immensely in decongesting Rajiv Chowk, which is currently the interchange point for travellers between Noida and Gurgaon.
The Botanical Garden-Kalkaji Mandir section has nine stations— Kalkaji Mandir, Okhla NSIC, Sukhdev Vihar, Jamia Milia Islamia, Jasola Vihar, Shaheen Bagh, Kalindi Kunj, Okhla Bird Sanctuary and Botanical Garden. While Kalkaji Mandir is underground, all other stations are elevated. The section will also cater to two major educational institutions – Jamia Milia Islamia and Amity University.
On this section, the Delhi Metro’s third bridge over river Yamuna has come up at Kalindi Kunj, between the Kalindi Kunj and Okhla Bird Sanctuary stations. It is a 574-metre bridge with 14 spans (41 metres each) and 15 piers. It has come up about 85 metres downstream of the existing Okhla bridge over river Yamuna.

California state Sen. John Moorlach has proposed building a U.S. version of Germany’s unrestricted Autobahn from just north of Los Angeles to Stockton. His bill, SB-319, wouldn’t need a new highway; it would add two lanes in each direction to I-5 and Highway 99. That’s eight lanes in total on the two major north-south corridors in the Golden State. In any of those lanes, Moorlach said drivers could cover the distance between cities in about 2.5 hours at 100 mph.
The Republican representative of Costa Mesa said he got the idea for his bill before Gov. Gavin Newsom made recent comments seen as closing the door on California’s high-speed rail project. The state broke ground on what was to be a revolutionary (for the U.S.) bullet train in 2008. Trains hitting a top speed of 220 miles per hour were meant to get passengers from L.A. to San Francisco in three hours, for half the price of a plane ticket.

Scouts turn a « rubbish dump » into plaza
Since the garbage trucks have stopped to collect rubbish from the trash cans of Gonaives’s houses for some time past, people started to throw garbage piles on a public square. It was a shame that such a beautiful area has been defiled.
Some Scouts decided to take action a couple of months ago. They launched a project in order for this place to be cleaned. 100 Scouts and non-Scouts have been working hard for six hours to achieve their purpose.
Having this done, nobody can identify that place as an ex-rubbish dump. Nowadays, it is just a lovely plaza.

Halifax Transit route 18 'Universities'
|Types of Buses Used
|New Flyer D40LF
Halifax Transit route 18 'Universities' was a route that ran from the Lacewood Terminal in Clayton Park to south end Halifax, specifically servicing the major universities - Dalhousie University, Saint Mary's University and Mount Saint Vincent University. The route traveled via Flamingo Drive, Windsor Street and Robie Street, looping in the south end via Spring Garden Road, South Park Street, and Inglis Street.
The original route 18 Universities was quite different from the revised route; it did not service Lacewood Terminal, instead starting at Mount Saint Vincent University. Instead of servicing Windsor Street, it serviced Joeseph Howe Avenue and Mumford Terminal, Chebucto Road/North Street and Oxford Street to South Street. In addition, there was a single morning run beginning at the Bridge Terminal in Dartmouth to Mumford Terminal and Mount Saint Vincent University. The route 18 at this time ran hourly, Monday to Friday and only operated during the university calender year. It was revised to its last format in 2003.
Terminals and Major Stops
The route 18 serviced the following terminals and major stops:
- Lacewood Terminal
- Mount Saint Vincent University
- Saint Mary's University
- Dalhousie University (Robie Street)

Third Mainland Bridge To Be Closed Throughout Saturday, February 27
Third Mainland Bridge Would be closed All through Saturday, 27th February 2021(12:01am – 11:59pm). This will be done in order to the removal of equipment used for the replacement of expansion joints, among others..
Third Mainland Bridge is the longest of three bridges connecting Lagos Island to the mainland, others are the Eko and Carter bridges. It was the longest bridge in Africa until 1996 when the 6th October Bridge located in Cairo was completed.
The bridge starts from Oworonshoki which is linked to the Apapa-Oshodi express way and Lagos-Ibadan express way, and ends at the Adeniji Adele Interchange on Lagos Island. There is also a link midway through the bridge that leads to Herbert Macaulay Way, Yaba.
The bridge was built by Julius Berger Nigeria PLC and opened by President Ibrahim Babangida in 1990; it measures about 11.8 km in length.
Since its launch, the bridge has been undergoing haphazard maintenance which the present federal government is committed to correcting.

Councilman P.G. Sittenfeld, who gave out bananas to try to get Chiquita to stay in Cincinnati, tomorrow plans a press conference in Clifton to urge residents to contact City Hall and express their displeasure with City Manager Milton Dohoney's parking proposal. The manager wants to contract the parking system out to a private company for at least $40 million up front plus annual lease payments for 30 years. He used $21 million of the parking money to help fill the $34 million deficit.
Sittenfeld, with community leaders, will pass out "tickets" to put on cars that tell drivers how to let City Hall know they don't like Dohoney's plan. He'll be in front of the Esquire Theatre, 320 Ludlow Ave., at 10 a.m.
Earlier today, he said: "I really think we're building this budget on quicksand as long as we keep the parking proposal in it."
Vice Mayor Roxanne Qualls said she's as concerned about the parking situation as everyone else is. But she said detractors need to help come up with a workable way to replace the $21 million.


This is an article that I wrote for the Metro Herald in May, 2013 which discusses why I photograph abandoned buildings and how and where I do it. 2a588e70-beff-4194-9dd1-570a345e84f8
This building had been a two-storey convent school for girls, erected in 1901. The number of attendees dwindled and it closed in 2007. Thankfully, I got in three days before the JCBs moved in on their prey and completely demolished it. The Department of Education plans on replacing the site with a new secondary school.


Doubling tree cover in the parish over the next 10 years
Recent research suggests planting billions of trees across the world is the biggest and cheapest way to tackle the climate crisis. Wood is 50% carbon so trees are a great carbon store, removing carbon from the atmosphere. Tree planting is not only a powerful climate change solution, it is also cheap, available now and everyone can get involved.
One of the village’s goals in the Neighbourhood Plan is for the parish to become carbon neutral by 2030. reLEAF is part of delivering this and is a joint project between Zero Carbon Haddenham and Haddenham Parish Council.
Our first tree planting took place in March 2020 – https://zeroch.org/2020/03/07/the-first-releaf-tree-planting-session/
Here are some of the ways you can help:
- Fund raising
- Applying for grants
- Identifying places where we can plant trees (see How to do a survey for reLEAF)
- Organising and running tree planting events
- Looking after the trees
- Engaging with our community groups, schools, residents, land owners and businesses
- Communicating and social media

INTRODUCTION PAGE FOR BRYNFORD COMMUNITY COUNCIL
Brynford Community Council, according to Council records, came into existence in 1897 and was then known as Brynford Parish Council. Following the Local Government Act 1972, which divided the whole of Wales into ‘communities’, it became a Community Council.
The Council represents around 1,000 people living in the communities of Brynford and Pentre Halkyn. It has 10 elected members.
The Council is a corporate body with a legal existence of its own which is quite separate from that of its members. Its decisions are the responsibility of the whole body. The Council has been granted powers by Parliament or the National Assembly for Wales, including the right to raise money through taxation and a range of powers to spend public money.
The Council has powers to affect planning highways, traffic, community safety, housing, street lighting, cemeteries, playing fields, community centres, litter, war memorials, seats, shelters and rights of way.
The council normally meets on the second Tuesday of the month at Brynford CP School for 7.00pm. Members of the public are welcome to attend and can raise any issue relating to the business of the council before the commencement of the formal council meeting.

Endpoints: Corner of Bastanchury Rd. & W. Valley View Dr. to the Juanita Cooke Trail off Valencia Mesa Dr.
This trail is a local favorite for bike riders. With its mature trees and marked paths, it is devoted solely to trail trekkers. To begin, catch the Juanita Cooke Trail off Valencia Mesa Dr. and proceed South. Turn right on to the Hiltscher Park Trail. Cross Euclid St. and continue on to W. Valley View Drive.
The City of Fullerton, in an ongoing effort to improve the City’s trail system, has recently installed a signalized crossing at Hiltscher Trail and Euclid St. This signal is activated by pressing the “walk” button (there is also a button for those riding horses). The wait time is about a minute, similar to the trail crossing at Juanita Cooke trail Morelia St. and Bastanchury. Other improvements to Hiltscher Trail are in final design, and will likely be under construction in the Spring of next year.

The English Local Government Association (LGA) is now in the process of studying the possibilities of forming a Municipal Bond Agency. Lars M Andersson is advising the LGA in this project.
The English Local Government Association (LGA), together with the Welch Local Government Association (WLGA), started to explore the possibilities of creating a Municipal Bond Agency in 2011. This project was carried out in cooperation with Local Partnerships, an entity jointly owned by the LGA and the Treasury (50/50). In January 2012 an outline business case was presented. This action probably triggered the PWLB to lower their rate the same year, which in its turn was one of the reasons why the Municipal Bond Agency project did not gain momentum at that time.
The question of creating a Municipal Bond Agency was raised again by the LGA in 2013, which commissioned three advisors to review the Outline Business Case of 2012 and to suggest a way forward. Aidan Brady (ex. Deutsche bank) was the lead advisor with Francis Breedon (Professor of Economics and Finance at Queen Mary University, London) and Lars M Andersson. Their report was delivered in March 2014, presenting evidence why a Municipal Bond Agency should be created. The report was approved by the LGA and this is now followed by talks with local governments, but already in November 2013 around twenty local authorities agreed to work with the LGA on creating the agency. Among those local authorities one can find Birmingham City Council, Cambridgeshire County Council, City of London Corporation and Newcastle City Council.

Bloomfield road is a bit of a mesh mash of building work and construction since in an ambitious move, the Club announced in 2000 their intention to redevelop Bloomfield Road, resulting in a new 16,000 all seated stadium. Phase one of the project was completed in February 2002, with the opening of the new North & West Stands. Phase two, the rebuilding of the South & East Stands, yet to commence.
The single tiered West & North Stands are located at one side and at one end of the ground. They are impressive looking and the North West corner between them has also been filled with seating, so that this area of the ground is enclosed. At the back of the West Stand is a row of executive boxes. Naming the West Stand, 'The Pricebusters Matthews Stand' rather than just 'The Sir Stanley Matthews Stand', seems disrespectful. Both the other sides of the ground have now been demolished. On the East side of the ground an open temporary 'golf style' seated stand has been erected to house away supporters, whilst at the South end of the ground still awaits a new stand to be constructed. Outside the North Stand of the ground is a statue of the former Blackpool legend Stan Mortensen.
After demolishing the old South Stand in 2003, the Club have yet to embark upon the building of its replacement. The stand would be similar to the North Stand and linked to the West Stand, it was intended to be open for the 2004/05 season, but for various reasons works are yet to commence. It is intended that once the South Stand has been completed then work would begin on the construction of a new East Stand. It is possible that work will begin on it sometime in 2006.
With delays to the building of the new South Stand, away fans will once again for this season find themselves being housed in a temporary stand on the Eastern side of the ground. The stand is more reminiscent of the type found at the 18th hole of the British Open Golf Championships, rather than at a football ground and has a capacity of 1,700. As you would expect from a temporary stand the facilities are basic and the stand has no roof, leaving fans exposed to the elements.Of course whats the weather forecast....rain. So we can't even have a morning on the beach, to the pub it is then


By Ignatius Ushie
The Honourable Minister, Ministry of Niger Delta Affairs, Sen. Godswill Akpabio, CON, disclosed that the Federal Government has handed over the completion of the East-West road from Section 1-4 to the Minister of Works and Housing, Mr. Babatunde Raji Fashola, SAN, to ensure speedy completion of the project and achieve the objectives of President Muhammadu Buhari. In a statement made available to Transport Day in Abuja.
The Minister revealed this during the handing over ceremony held at the Federal Ministry of Works and Housing conference room in Abuja recently.
According to him, “It is with great pleasure to us today in the Ministry of Niger Delta Affairs, to handover the Section 1-4 of the East West Road to the Works and Housing Ministry as demanded by the people of Ogoni. I can say that we are handing over this project at over 80 Percent completion level.”
“The people of the region can now travel from Port Harcourt, the Rivers State capital to Yenogoa, within minutes and that was not the case before we came into office.
“There were impediments on the road which were not in the original plan. There was therefore, the need to extend the road with a 6 lane layout, hence the issue of compensation arose and we mobilized funds to pay the owners of lands and property on the right of way,” he added.
The former Minority Leader of the Senate, stated further that though the road project has been handed over to the Ministry of Works and Housing, relevant staff of the Niger Delta Ministry would be available to render their support and share experiences with their counterparts in the Works ministry concerning the road, saying,” Our field officers in the Ministry are available for any assistance and information as it concerns the road. We will continue to work together to ensure that the East West Road is completed and commissioned by President Muhammadu Buhari”.
“We are also handing-over the N10.4bn SukukCheque that was given to our Ministry by the Federal Ministry of Finance, Budget and National Planning for the East-West Road to the Ministry of Works and Housing for the commencement of work and not for payment of old debts,” Akpabio stated.
In his response, the Hon. Minister, Federal Ministry of Works and Housing, BabatundeFashola (SAN) recalled that 13 years ago in 2009, it was the decision of the Federal Government
to transfer the East West Road project (initially handled by the Ministry of Works) to the Ministry of Niger Delta Affairs, noting that currently President Buhari has directed that the project be supervised by the Federal Ministry of Works and Housing.
He, therefore, informed that his counterpart has given him a detailed brief of the progress and challenges of the road project with documents to back it up.
According to him, “I have travelled the entire road once before, I have sense of it’s scope and it’s progress, but of course, after this meeting, our team will work with your team to undertake actual site verifications and inspections, so that we can be able to sign up in the proper engineering terms and civil construction terms, where we took over from.it looks good on books, we must match the books to research.
“I am using this opportunity to ask the Permanent Secretary of the Ministry to immediately mobilise requisite team in the Ministry to undertake actual assessment with the contractors on site in each section of the East West road. After that, a report would be shared with the Minister of MNDA and Mr. President to know the point we took over and progress been recorded” he added.
The former Governor, Lagos State, urged for total communal peace, collaboration and sanity from the various communities.

Noida Metro Rail Corporation Limited (NMRC) was formed under the arrangements of the Companies Act 2013. NMRC, a Joint Venture Company of the Government of India (GoI) and the Government of Uttar Pradesh (GoUP) was set up for arranging, assembling and building up Mass travel and other metropolitan vehicle and people mover frameworks, everything being equal, and trains.
The NMRC has opened its hallway covering the length of 29.707KM between Noida and Greater Noida and has been functional since 26th January 2019. The stretch comprises 21 stations out of which 15 are in Noida and 6 in Greater Noida). NMRC has gotten an “IGBC PLATINUM” rating for every one of the 21 raised stations of NMRC from the IGBC Green Rating System.
The primary goal of NMRC is to design, plan, create, build, keep up with, work and money mass travel and other metropolitan vehicles in the Noida and Greater Noida area. Under this, the NMRC is fostering a metro rail framework associating twin urban cities Noida and Greater Noida.
The work on the Aqua Line had begun in May 2015 and was finished in a record season of three-and-a-half years. The 14.95 km Aqua Line Corridor begins from Noida Sector 51 and ends at Knowledge Park V in Greater Noida and has nine stations in total. There is an aggregate of 21 stations on the hallway, 15 of them in Noida and six in Greater Noida. The Aqua Line travels between the Sector 71 station in Noida and the Depot Station in Greater Noida. According to NMRC rules, the Aqua Line trains will run at a timespan minutes during top hours between 8 am to 11 am and 15 minutes during non-top hours between 5 am to 8 pm during non-weekend days. On Saturdays, a train will be accessible every 15 minutes, according to NMRC orders. For every one of the six days of the week, Aqua-Line will work between 6 am-10 pm.
The Metro administration is relied upon to help countless passengers in both the urban areas, where mass public vehicles have been generally inaccessible, and the NMRC expects a daily footfall of more than one lakh travellers.
Here is all the information needed to know about the Aqua line:
- Built at an expense of Rs 5,503 crore, the 29.7-kilometre passageway with 21 stations is the longest Metro line to be inaugurated at one go in the nation. The Hyderabad Metro held the previous record at 29km.
- There are 15 stations in Noida and six in Greater Noida. The Aqua Line stops at Sector 76, 101, 81, NSEZ, Noida Sector 83, 137, 142, 143, 144, 145, 146, 147, 148, and the Greater Noida’s Knowledge Park II, Pari Chowk, Alpha 1, Delta 1, GNIDA Office and the Depot Metro stations.
- Travellers can purchase QR-coded paper tickets or utilize smart cards. The initial instalment for another mobility card will be Rs 300, as against Rs 200 for Delhi Metro. The Delhi Metro tokens and smart cards won’t be substantial on this line.
- Voyaging one station would cost Rs 10 on a QR-coded ticket and Rs 9 using a smart card; 2km would cost Rs 15 on the ticket and Rs 13.50 on the smart card; 3 to 6km would cost Rs 20 through ticket and Rs 18 on the smart card; 7 to 9km would cost Rs 30 on the ticket and Rs 27 on the smart card. Voyaging more than 10 stations however under 16 stations would cost Rs 40 using a ticket yet Rs 36 through the smart card. Going past 16 stations would cost Rs 50 through ticket and Rs 45 using the smart card.

Council launches search for design team for £5m reconstruction of historic pier head
Southend Borough Council has launched a search for a design team for the £5m rebuilding of its pier head, which was destroyed in a fire in 2005.
The council wants teams comprising an architect, landscape architect and structural engineer to design a pier head building and a landscaped route linking it to Southend train station.
In the design brief, the council said it wanted to “try and recapture the past glories of the pier”, a 1.34-mile structure built in 1830. The pier head was destroyed by fire in 2005, and has remained in a derelict condition ever since.
The appointment of a design team is dependent on a successful funding application for a £4m Cabe Sea Change grant.
Design teams have until 15 June to submit expressions of interest. A winner will be announced in early September.

Beginning Wednesday morning, Dec. 4, the Lincoln County Highway Department will be closing Molino Road to start repairing a road slide originating with heavy rains earlier this year.
The road will be closed between the John Campbell intersection and box #854, according to a release issued by the department last week, adding that the road will be closed for approximately three to four weeks.
“Thank you in advance for your patience as we work to get this road repaired and back in service,” said Lori Jean, deputy director.
The road was one of several sustained significant damage back in February as heavy rains fell across the area. Altogether, an estimated 10 to 12 inches of rainfall dropped on an already saturated Lincoln County over a five-day period.
In the wake of those rains, large cracks appeared in the pavement along Molino Road.


Bundaberg Flood Action Plan on the Table
Bundaberg Regional Council Mayor, Jack Dempsey, said that the Council was looking forward to receiving a briefing from Member for Bundaberg, Leanne Donaldson, regarding future proposals to progress the government’s stated 10 year flood action plan for Bundaberg.
Dempsey said that a Council briefing with Ms Donaldson was scheduled for Wednesday although the community consultations started on Tuesday at the North Bundaberg Progress Hall.
“I believe the Council team associated with producing our Floodplain study can be justly proud of its efforts following an extensive review of both the Flood Study and associated Risk Management and also the Council initiated Community Engagement process,” Dempsey said.
“The reviews, undertaken by independent State appointed consultants Jacobs, generally found a high quality of procedure and data associated with the manner in which Council undertook its flood analysis and engaged with residents.
“Of course, as is the case with any review, areas of potential improvement are identified and this can only be positive, not only for the Bundaberg Region in any future flood event, but must also assist communities across this State and the nation that are subjected to flood events.”
Dempsey said that what is important is for the State Government to articulate to the community what mitigation measures will be applied taking into account options identified in Council’s flood plain action plan of 2014 and other State identified measures.
“As a Council and as a community we require to know what financial resources will be available to progress these mitigation options under the 10 year plan,” he said.
The options identified by Council in its report and which are considered in the State Government’s review are:
- Construction of a levee and floodgate in East Bundaberg;
- Regional Bridge Upgrades;
- Bundaberg North Evacuation Route Upgrades;
- Funding for house raising / restumping;
- Construction of a levee in North Bundaberg;
- Dredging of the Burnett River in the town reach;
- Construction of a low-level levee in North Bundaberg;
- Widening the Burnett River at Millaquin Bend.

Anti-slip wall/floor tiles with stone effect
We highlight the new thickness available – 20mm. This type of material is ideal for outdoor use – gardens, parks, terraces – and in high-traffic public spaces. It can be used on gravel, grass and raised areas, in a fast and functional way, being highly resistant and easily removable or repositionable without the need for cement-based adhesives.
It brings great advantages when used on uneven surfaces, since it solves surface flatness problems.
It can also be used traditionally with cement-based adhesive for a pavement with extremely high mechanical strength.
Slabstone is the elegance of natural stone that can be applied to the more sophisticated tastes and demands of contemporary architecture.

We have delivered an alternative crossing of the Toowoomba Range to improve freight efficiency and driver safety, relieve pressure on roads in the Toowoomba and Lockyer Valley regions, and enhance livability for the region’s residents.
The Toowoomba Bypass, previously known as the Toowoomba Second Range Crossing, plays a key role in accelerating the growth of regional Australia. Toowoomba is a key strategic link in the National Land Transport Network with almost half of all exports from the Port of Brisbane originating from regions accessed via the existing Warrego Highway Toowoomba Range section.
Of the 24,600 vehicle movements daily on the original crossing, 4,400 are heavy vehicles. Up to 80% of these are expected to divert via the 41km-long Toowoomba Bypass improving the livability for residents of the Toowoomba and Lockyer Valley areas.
- Reduces travel time
- Improves safety
- Contributes to regional growth
- Contributes to economy
- Increases capacity
- Improves network efficiency
- Increases traffic flow
The Toowoomba Bypass provides a number of features:
- 4 lanes from Warrego Highway (East) Interchange to Warrego Highway (West)
- 2 truck safety emergency ramps on the down section (eastbound) of the range
- Designed to accommodate type 1 road trains
- 22 pull over bays long enough for type 1 road trains
- 6.1m minimum clearance under bridges
- new truck rest stop and decoupling area at Nass Road.
The Toowoomba Bypass allows:
- drivers to avoid up to 18 sets of traffic lights
- the redirection of heavy vehicles away from Toowoomba's Central Business District relieving local roads of bypassing freight traffic
- the removal of over-dimensional and all classes of dangerous goods vehicles from the suburban streets of Toowoomba
- enhanced livability for residents of the Toowoomba and Lockyer Valley areas.
The Toowoomba Bypass facts and figures include:
- 10 million cubic metres of cut earthworks
- 42 cut excavations on the main alignment
- 30m deep cutting at the top of the range
- maximum 6.5% gradient down the range
- 90km/h down the range, 100km/h on the rest of the Toowoomba Bypass
- 24 bridge locations with 30 structures
- 40 road embankments.
We delivered the project through a Public Private Partnership (PPP) arrangement with Nexus Infrastructure Pty Ltd.
- Total investment
- $1.606 billion (indicative total cost)
- Australian Government
- $1.137 billion
- Queensland Government
- $469 million
The opening of the Toowoomba Bypass has meant some roads have changed names.
- The Toowoomba Bypass is:
- the Warrego Highway (Route A2) from the Warrego (East) interchange (Helidon Spa) to the Warrego (West) interchange (Charlton)
- the Gore Highway (Route A39) from the Warrego (West) interchange (Charlton) to the Gore Highway interchange (Athol).
- The old Warrego Highway from Helidon Spa to Toowoomba is now known as the Toowoomba Connection Road (A21).
- The old Gore Highway from Charlton to Toowoomba is now known as the Toowoomba Athol Road (A139).
The project was opened to traffic in September 2019.
Motorists using the Toowoomba Bypass are required to pay a toll which contributes to its operation and maintenance. The toll point is located close to the top of the range, east of the Mort Street Interchange.
For more information on the Toowoomba Bypass toll prices and toll payment visit Linkt, Queensland’s tolling service provider.
To pay tolls for the Toowoomba Bypass, motorists may open a tolling account with Linkt or any toll road operator in Australia:
- E-way – phone 1300 555 833
- E-Toll – phone 13 18 65
- EastLink – phone (03) 9955 1400

If you are experiencing hardship and having difficulty paying your toll for Toowoomba Bypass, you may be able to access hardship assistance through the Linkt Assist. You can contact Linkt Assist online or by phone on 1300 767 865 for further information.
The Toowoomba Bypass is primarily a freight route which has been designed and built to accommodate larger heavy vehicles (type 1 road trains, B-Triples and PBS Level 3 heavy vehicles).
The Toowoomba Bypass offers truck operators more options to configure their freight movements providing increased freight efficiencies and significant cost savings along this key regional freight route.
All heavy vehicles traversing the range are required to use the Toowoomba Bypass unless the vehicle has a local destination in Toowoomba or is travelling north or south via the New England Highway.
A local destination in Toowoomba is defined as a location within the mapped Blue Zone.
Destinations on the border of the Blue Zone (sections of Boundary Street, Bridge Street, Tor Street, Anzac Avenue, James Street, Canning Street and Drayton Connection Road as outlined on the map) will be required to use the Toowoomba Bypass.
We are considering various compliance activities to manage access arrangements on the Toowoomba Bypass and existing Toowoomba Range (Toowoomba Connection Road). These vary from industry information and education, to a combination of signage and on-road enforcement.
