Lay off our lay-by call
Published Date:

RESIDENTS have slammed the filling of a popular lay-by at a local beauty spot with stone chippings.
A meeting of Whaley Bridge Town Council heard last week how access to the Shallcross lay-by on Long Road had been restricted by hoards of chippings.
Cllr David Lomax said: "I appreciate that Derbyshire County Council need to spread chippings at certain times of the year and need to find somewhere to store them.
"Presumably they could bring them at the time they were to spread them. Then the lay-by could be better utilised by residents and visitors."
Problems with overgrown vegetation were also highlighted at the meeting.
