Back on the trains into the city centre from Stockport Station. What a relief.
Good job by the construction company keeping to schedule. I dreaded delays and none noticed.

I’m excited for investment into County & Edgeley Park which received planning approval last week. Saddened also, however, that neither the Club nor Council were able to find a way for that to happen without saving the Edgeley Wildlife Reserve area.

Day 1 of commuting while Stockport Station is closed. Having a go at the Rail Replacement. It’s pretty rainy and pretty miserable, but breakfast and coffee on hand. Take care if yours doing the same!

Glad the EWR group are getting their voice heard. Everyone wants County to expand and succeed. The plan for that shouldnt rest on making a private car park out of a valuable bit of biodiverse wild land.

Edgeley is not enough of an empire for our local councillors apparently,l. They are now adding people kicked out of Labour for these kind of messages and sentiments. Not convinced this is what local Residents voted for…

Just got off the phone with Council Officers about latest traffic issues around St Matthew’s school. They’re going to look into a temporary crossing during school hours amongst other ideas. Hopefully minimise situations like Tues night.

Pleased to see this patch of damaged pavement by the lights on King St repaired (improved?). Residents had mentioned it to me when construction started and been bugging me ever since.
