As discussed at the recent AGM, some residents, regular users of the bus service to and from The Village, had drawn attention to the poor state of both bus shelters, one located in Guards Avenue opposite Tesco and the other outside the Village Health Club.

As well as dirt and minor graffiti, both shelters had missing end panels that allowed wind and rain to sweep through. Being unable to identify specific responsibility for their upkeep, the VA decided it wanted to fix the missing panels and clean up the shelters. Happily, the recently completed boundary wall work came in significantly under budget and the VA decided to apply some of these savings to fix the shelters.

By the time you read this the end panels should be installed thus making the shelters effective for residents and other users waiting for a bus.
