Excellent ward Councillor Graham Jeffery invited me to Hutton ward in Guisborough today to discuss a number of issues - the first of which was car parking all down the side of Hutton Village Road, which is a narrow road at the best of times.
As you can see, this was bad enough on a Friday morning - at weekends it's becoming impossible and would obstruct emergency vehicle access. Graham hopes to develop a landscaped car park solution in one of the next door fields, which could also ease pressure in Newton under Roseberry.
We then moved on to look at the new signs that are going up around the town directing HGVs to follow the approved route around the bypass rather than straight through the town centre. Graham and fellow resident John Blades have fought tirelessly for these and now we need to see proper enforcement. I know some lorries continue to ignore the signs and I will be writing to all the big supermarkets again next week.
