Norden Councillors Update
Covering orden Ward including shworth, Birtle & Caldershaw
Your Ward Councillors are here all year round to offer help and advice on a wide range of local issues
We enjoyed welcoming the Tour of Britain Cycle Race as it passed through the village
earlier this month. Working together with Council Officers we were able to put
together some great activities to celebrate this special sporting occasion and it
seemed to give the village a real lift, with lots of people enjoying the race action.
th
We will be attending the Community Safety vent on Saturday 19 October at Norden
Bowling Club from 10am, so please come along as there will be lots going on.
Residents tell us that they are pleased with the new, bigger bin at the top of
Caldershaw Road, which has now replaced the small worn one on the lamppost.
We are moving along with plans to install a new CCT camera in the village. This will
give etra security to residents and businesses and be monitored via the central
control centre in Rochdale. This has been a big investment but we know that safety
and security is one of peoples main concerns, so we are happy to have been able to
get this valuable addition to the village. We will continue to work with community
police to ensure that this becomes part of our wider network of initiatives to reduce
crime and antisocial behaviour.
It has been good to see that microasphalting work has now taken place along
denfield Road. This was the final layer to all the resurfacing and after a gritty’
couple of weeks we now seem to have a very good surface.
We have helped to support the installation of a new defibrillator situated on
Woodhouse Lane; a very worthwhile project which adds to a growing network of these
lifesaving devices throughout Norden. Let’s hope they never need to be used but it is
reassuring to know that they are there.
