Newport East Ward

A message from Councillor Carter:

Pothole busters from T & W will be filling in the potholes at the junction of Hampton Drive and Lapworth Way. This work should be completed in the next 48 hours.

Tarmacing will also take place on the path from Vineyard Road through Norbroom Park, and some speed bumps will be created to curb speeding vehicles.

Graffiti art will "adorn" the wall in front of the skateboard park. This will be supervised by Mark Simpson from Skate8, and will be on the inside of the wall only, i.e. facing the park. Councillor Carter is in discussion with the Parks Department to see if a soil mound could be built in front of the wall, with planting, to screen the park from residents, view.
