MANEA PARISH







                                            • Work identified in the recent survey of trees
                                            at the park and pit has been carried out.  The
                                            Council is planting ten indigenous trees around
                                            the park and pit to replace those we have lost.
                                            • We continue to work through the process for
                                            erecting  school  bus  shelters  on  Charlemont
                                            Road, Wisbech Road corner, outside the primary
                                            school, the High Street and Westfield Road. We
                                            have also agreed to fund an extra shelter for
                                            service users in the centre of the village (subject
        n addition to commissioning the skatepark,   to permissions).
        Councillors continue to push hard to get
      Ivarious repairs completed.
      • Most of the  streetlights are  now working.
      Please report faults to Fenland Council (link on
      the Parish website or call 01354 654321).

      • Road repairs are happening though not as fast
      as we would like.  We have met, and continue
      to meet, in person with Officers from Cambs
      CC.  We are asking them to provide a schedule of
      works for outstanding repairs.
      • Councillors continue to attend every meeting
      at FDC concerning the improvement of our train
      service.  After the dreadful service commuters
      received in the months before Xmas, we are   Manea Celebrates
      monitoring progress to ensure Greater Anglia
      provide replacement buses if this happens again.  Councillors hosted a celebration evening to
                                            thank volunteers who support and run activities
                                            in the village.  We were delighted to award small
                                            grants totaling £1800 to: -
                                            Manea Sirens, Brownies, Rainbows, Internet
