Replacement and heritage style lamp posts in Downe
The current financial position is:
A huge thanks to all those who have donated money for the installation of “heritage” posts so far. To date we have raised £8,267 towards the total of £13,878.
This means we still need to raise £5,611 to completely fund the work.
The village has paid what it owes Bromley Council, and to get the project rolling, a villager fronted the money and we are endeavouring to pay it back.
The current implementation position is:
Bromley Council have now started on the programme of replacing the old concrete street lights. They have issued us with the following schedule – which is rather later that we were originally told. Note that the heritage post replacement work seems to have been left till last.
1. Standard Road, Bellevue Road, Snodlands Close, Stalisfield Place, Mill Lane, High Elms Road -
Installation of new columns started on site and main service plus removal of columns programmed for approx. start date week ending 20 July 2015
2. North End Lane, High Elms Road
Approx. programme date week ending 26 July 2015
3. Green Hill West
Approx. programme date week ending 9 August 2015
4. Rookery Road
Approx. programme date week ending 23 August 2015
5. Luxted Road
Approx. programme date week ending 6 September 2015
Items 2, 3, 4 and 5 dates may be changed due to road closures and traffic management.
Road closures will be for North End Road, Green Hill/West Hill, Rookery Road and Luxted Road as these roads are too narrow for other vehicles to pass by while carrying out the installation / connection works.
