A14 Ellington to Fen Ditton - forthcoming Public Inquiry
Brampton PC received a letter from the Highways Agency,dated 3 Feb 2010, which states..
' The Secretary of State for Transport and the Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government have decided to hold a Public Local Inquiry to consider objections to the draft Order. Details of the venue will be advised at a later date. An independent Inspector will be appointed by the Planning Inspectorate to conduct the Inquiry.
The purpose of the Inquiry is to inform the Secretary of State of the weight and nature of objections to the proposals before the Inquiry. The Highways (Inquiries Procedure) Rules 1994 give certain classes of objectors (broadly statutory bodies and individuals who are closely affected by the proposals) a right to appear at the Inquiry. But in practice Inspectors make no distinction between Statutory and Non-Statutory objectors in this respect. Inspectors recognise the importance of affording a hearing to anyone wanting to appear at the Inquiry who has something relevant to say which is not merely reptitious or obstructive.'
We do not as yet have an indication as to the dates..........

Overnight on Sunday 31st January to Monday 1st February there was a
burglary in Horseshoes Way and three vehicles had things stolen from
them, one in Lenton Close and two in Manor Close, Brampton.
Did you see anyone acting suspiciously in Brampton that evening?
A member of the public did see three men acting suspiciously in
Horseshoes Way about 2.30am did you see these people?
Do you know who they are?
These crimes are being investigated and police patrols have been
increased in the area.
If you have any information regarding these crimes then please
contact the police on 0345 456 456 4
Crimestoppers, anonymously on 0800 555 111.
Here is some advice to help you avoid becoming a victim:
*Lock vehicles when unoccupied and remove all belongings even coats.
*Do not leave keys in doors, remove them and put them in a safe place so you will be able to get them in case you need to get out of your property in an emergency.
*Make sure that all doors are locked even if you are in the property.
*If you are going on holiday or going to be out late then put a light timer on so it looks like people are at home. Tell a neighbour that you are going to be away so they can keep an eye on your property and shut the curtains so the property looks lived in.
Please consider the security of your home or business to ensure that your property is as secure as it can be. If you would like to discuss crime prevention or security measures in more detail, contact the crime reduction unit at Huntingdon Police Station on 01480 415512 or 01480 415514.
Many thanks,
PCSO Gemma Clark.

This is the second of the Parish Council projects for memorial tree sponsorship, the first being when 33 ornamental trees were planted in the Memorial
Garden on the playing fields last year and now with 22 new memorial rose trees we have a total of 55 memorials for people
to remember their loved ones.
Memorial schemes have proved so popular, and as we have had further enquiries, we are offering a further 21 rose trees for sponsorship. These are already planted in the Garden of
Remembrance. If you have anyone with a close connection to Brampton and wish to sponsor a rose tree in their memory, please contact the Parish Council office on 01480 454441 or
