Rutland County Council, Staff Parking on swooning bridge, Uppingham Road, Continues to cause hazard & chaos

Rutland County Council, Staff Parking on swooning bridge, Uppingham Road,
Continues to cause hazard & chaos

Today the council staff's inconsiderate parking was more noticeable due
to the closure of the A606 and part of the Oakham bypass.

I telephoned Rutland County Council unusually a member of staff
was very unhelpful. She suggested the police should be contacted.

I called Leicestershire Police and they told be they are not responsible
for highway obstruction.

Jeakins Weir, Work Starts on 96-home estate, Uppingham Road, Oakham, Photographs, Video

Cllr Gene Plews said at a council meeting this would not happen.

Rutland County Council and residents lost an appeal made in 2011.

This one must have been difficult for the Tory council, not wanting to upset possible voters
and also not really wanting to upset Colonel Weir's family.

I wonder if QC Mr Jerry Cahill has finished paying of the credit card bill, after his wife's numerous shopping trips to Mill Street?

Uppingham Road (Oakham) Closed

Uppingham Road (Oakham) Closed

Published:Thursday 17 February 2011

Click Here For Photographs


Uppingham Road (between Rutland County Council and Oakham Bypass) is closed until further notice.

This is because a leak has developed on the bridge (known locally as Swooning Bridge) and engineers are carrying out repair work.

Traffic should use Stamford Road as an alternative.

112 Houses on Land West of Uppingham Road‏ Oakham

Hello All

The agenda for the coming meeting (14th December)  of the Rutland County Council Planning Committee does NOT include the Uppingham Road development.
Therefore it will possibly come up on 11th January or 8th February 2011.  

Keep these in mind to attend if possible.

I shall let you know as soon as the date becomes confirmed.   In the meantime we are keeping in touch with developments.   

There has been a recommendation for the developers to carry out a further archaeological survey and we are ensuring that as many councillors as possible are aware of all the different objections made by you all.

We still need questions to be submitted to the Council Committee Meeting when it does occur, so please let me have your suggestions.

Oakham Action Jeakins Weir 112 Home

Dear All

I am very happy to be able to give you the news that  last night the Oakham Town Council planning committee unanimously rejected the application for the development of land to the west of Uppingham Road.   
The vote against the application was on the grounds that it is outside the Oakham boundary, in the open countryside, would spoil the key approach to important historic landscape,  and is against the wishes of Oakham people.    The access and egress of the site is a danger to local residents and the housing supply requirement does not justify building on a site which infringes on Rutland Water.

Keep watching the website for more news and keep up the pressure on your County Councillors to act on the Town Council recommendation.

Thank you all for your support and efforts on this  -  the first step along the road.

Builders Jeakins Weir has prepared plans to build 115 houses along the western side of Uppingham Road, which leads into the town from the A6003.
The land was marked as part of Rutland County Council's 20-year vision, published summer 2008.
The homes may be green but oncerns have been raised about their potential impact on one of Oakham's most attractive areas.
County councillor Gene Plews (Con), who represents the south east ward, said to the Rutland Times  "I'm concerned about any development in Oakham south east but this is one of the most attractive routes into the town.
"I'm worried about the visual impact this would have on the area and I would encourage any residents with concerns about the plans to contact me."

gplews@rutland.gov.uk
Also in the same issue of the Rutland Times
Alistair Weir, managing director of Jeakins Weir, said: "Rutlanders are environmentalists at heart. Over recent years people have been asking us for environmentally friendly designs and energy-saving features in our developments."
