Potholes reported

Prestwick miner has reported potholes on the corner at Prestwick Hall farm cottages (I refuse to call them roadside cottages)

Does no one else using the road think of reporting them. It always seems to be me that has to get action! Where is our local Councillors - We have two living in Prestwick and many others using the road.

Perhaps it is something Prestwick Residents Association could raise with our Councillors - no doubt they will be wanting residents votes soon.

Pothole at Prestwick Hall Farm corner reported

The potholes at Prestwick Hall Farm corner are approaching being dangerous and have been reported.

And have now been repaired - pity that the repair gang left some holes - they will need to come back soon!

Hedge adjacent to Airport boundary

Following Prestwick Miners contact with the Airport the following replay has been received.
"Thank you for contacting Newcastle International Airport (NIA). As part of our annual maintenance programme, each October, work begins to cut back the perimeter hedges across the site. This includes the hedge at Prestwick Road Ends.

I have checked with our maintenance team and I am informed that the contractor is  currently on site. I therefore expect that the hedges at Prestwick will be cut back imminently.

Should this not have occurred by early November please do feel free to contact me again."

UPDATE!

Hedge now cut and a very good job. The contractor even tidied up after him as he should have done. I bet Council Tax payers have to foot the bill to tidy up after the farmers cut the other roadside hedges.

AND

What happened to our local councillors and Prestwick Residents Association? It took Prestwick Miner once again to get some action!
