I had a pop at an illegal fly-posted signing in Houghton Regis last week. But in our High Street area, there is a lot of neglect. I want a smarter-looking town. Am I wrong for wanting that?

Rusty Bin. Ok, well it's not looking very smart ,but it still holds litter. CBC 17/1/13: "Contracts Officer for that area to inspect and arrange replacement if appropriate. ref: 03229 |

This unused building is awaiting redevelopment. Meanwhile, it appears that someone has decided to elbow in some of the windows leaving jagged edges for anyone to cut their fingers on. Another nearby building has a broken window, and I drew the shopkeeper's attention to it. He said it was being fixed. |

Alleyway: nearby has discarded bus stop pole/cycle sign. (cbc reference number for this issue is CRN 188426) |

Same alleyway: cabinet needs attention.

... And if you're all in favour of mixing old and new architecture this is the latest view. Personally, I'm not that big a fan. By the way that yellow "M" arrow does not point to the car park!

No entry at all, at all.

Anyway, as any local councillor would do, I have made sure that all these things are reported to the relevant authority to sort out.
And while I'm at it, I might as well advertise that I'm trying to get at least some of the pathway between Bovis Homes site on the Houghton Regis Quarry, and the A5 near French's Avenue, reopened. Subject, of course to checks by CBC, and agreement from the developers. It seems somewhat feasible.

Path: might be reopened. Needs some fencing removed and hardcore in the red area. |
|
A to B might be reopened at Houghton Regis Quarry edge.
