Food vans in the village this week

Monday means there is a new schedule of food vans for this coming week.  At the Haslingfield Village Hall this week (5-8pm):  Thursday (18/11): Kerief Catering and their lovely heart warming Caribbean fusion flavours.  Friday (19/11): La Biga and their wood fired oven pizza delights.  Saturday (20/11): A new Saturday night special: Dirt Box with an exciting array of flavourful options for meat lovers and non-meat lovers!

Village Christmas Tree sponsorship

Following the success of the Christmas Tree on the Village Green last year, the Parish Council have decided to continue with this tradition each year by purchasing the tree and using the lights you generously sponsored last year.  The purchase of the tree and the provision of the electric power to the lights is quite costly, so we are giving the villagers a chance to sponsor the tree again this year.  To save the fees of crowdfunding, sponsorship should be sent directly to the Parish Council bank account via bank transfer, or cash or a cheque can be accepted.   Please contact the Parish Clerk on clerk@haslingfieldparish.co.uk or 01223 870269 for details.

Public Consultation: Greater Cambridge Local Plan

Public Consultations: Cambridge Eastern Access and Making Connections

The Greater Cambridge Partnership (GCP) will shortly be launching two public consultations on proposals to help people move around the area more easily and sustainably.

Update: Resurfacing works on New Road

Cambridgeshire County Council has informed us that the resurfacing works are now substantially complete and New Road has now re-opened.  The contractors have advised that they still need to: replace the ironwork on 7 manhole covers, finish off some works to the kerbs and finally complete the line painting.

This work can all be undertaken without road closures using localised two-way traffic control.  They have scheduled these final elements to be done Tuesday 26 October and Wednesday 27 October.

Additional M11 closure – 18 October 2021

National Highways (formerly Highways England) require an additional closure overnight on Monday 18 October between junctions 8 and 10 of the M11, northbound only. This will be carried out between 11pm and 5am.

Whilst this closure is in place northbound traffic will be diverted off the M11 at junction 8 onto the A120, A10 and the A505 before re-joining M11 at junction 10.
