Renewal Area Update
Not a huge amount to report. The work on Astbury Road should start shortly. It's less clear when anything much will happen elsewhere.
The current Executive Member for Regeneration has announced that he will resign in Febuary to take up a new job in political lobbying. Hopefully his sucessor will take a greater interest in this project - which I think tends to get overlooked in favour of bigger and more glamourous projects like the Elephant & Castle, Aylesbury and Canada Water regeneration projects.

It seems that they are relaying the pavements of Hollydale Road soon. They have dug up the small trees and spray painted on the ground to indicate the various underground pipes and have left tons of paving slabs and bricks close to the junction with Evelina Road.
There has also been a maildrop in Lugard Road regarding the concerns of the locals and the soon-to-be improvements.
Work has begun on Hollydale Road. The tarmac pavement is being replaced by paving slabs and bricks.
The small section completed so far looks good.
The work on Hollydale Rd is great - but as far as I know it's nothing to do with the Renewal Project team! I suspect it's being paid for out of the £300k the council got as "planning gain" when the new flats were built at the end of Lugard Rd.
I'm seeing the Renewal team manager on Wednesday so I'll have an update then.
