Carriageway resurfacing and Pavement replacement in Fryent.


Good news for Fryent residents if you live in the following streets in Fryent - the Council has recently announced plans to resurface some roads and pavements. This is part of a large annual maintenance programme throughout the Borough costing over 5 million pounds.

Lewgars Avenue and Wakemans Hill Avenue  have been selected for road surface renewal and and Elthorne Way and Townsend Lane for pavement replacement.

The work on Wakemans Hill Ave will start soon and hopefully be completed within a week. The work on Lewgars Ave will commence on 29th July and should take about 2 days, all the schemes are subject to suitable weather conditions.

Work on pavement improvements will commence on 25 th July and residents will receive letters telling them when the contractors will start in their road. Parking restrictions, if applicable, will be suspended. Some pavements slabs are being replaced with Tarmac which is both cheaper and more resilient. Residents can also apply for extensions to vehicle crossovers.

Residents in affected roads will also be advised that vehicles left on roads will be removed and relocated by the contractor if it impedes the work.

The work is being undertaken by the Council contractor Conway Aecom.

Highways Maintenance Programme 2016/17

HIGHWAYS MAINTENANCE

Every year your local Councillors nominate Roads and pavements that need to be included in a maintenance programme. We rely on residents telling us which Roads and Pavements are the worst in Fryent.

It is not possible to include all nominated streets in a future programme but it will mean they are examined and the condition assessed. The next programme is 2016/17 and will be decided by Brent Council in December this year.

There are 2 separate list`s one for the condition of the road, i.e. potholes, frost damage, uneven surface, poor quality repairs. The other list is for Pavements, loose or broken, tree root damage are just some of the factors considered.

Is your Road or Street a problem? Let us know and we will come and have a look. We can only nominate 3 Roads and 3 Pavements  so we will only include the worst that we are told about.

You have to hurry as we only have 1 week before our suggestions have to be submitted.

Fryent Councillors,
George Crane, Shama Tatler and Ruth Moher.
