New Road Sign
Mon 4th Aug 2008
'There is nothing more frustrating than friends and relatives - let alone delivery drivers - not being able to find your home. So when residents of Mill Hill Road pointed out to us that there was no sign at the beginning of their road, we got on to it straight away. Especially as this is an important access road to two local estates. The District Council have now put in a new sign, which makes things very clear,' comments St Neots Lib Dems Transport spokes, Cllr. Mrs Julia Hayward.
