Broadband User Survey

Connecting Devon and Somerset are carrying out an online survey to help them understand people’s broadband needs and compare whether these needs are being met by the service they receive.

The Broadband User Survey asks questions about current available speeds, what homes or businesses can and cannot do with their existing broadband and the levels of satisfaction with their provider. The survey typically takes about five minutes to complete online and can be found at www.connectingdevonandsomerset.co.uk/broadband-user-survey.

Please complete by Sunday 9th December.

Tree Work – Back Road to Christow – 14th May

Tree surgeons will be working on the back road from Bridford to Christow between 9am and 4pm. They’ll be removing dead and dangerous trees that overhand the road. The road will remain open, but if you can avoid using it then it will make their life easier and most probably yours.

Revised Bin/Recycling Dates (no collection this week)

Due to the recent snow/severe weather conditions, the green bin and recycling boxes collection did not take place this week.

The next Tuesday collection will take place on Tuesday 27th March when black bins and recycling boxes will be emptied.

The collection the following week will be on Thursday 5th April (not Tuesday due to the Easter Bank Holidays) when green bins and recycling boxes will be emptied.  (Always assuming, of course, that we don’t get any more snow!!)

See Teignbridge website for details on when your bins and boxes are emptied.

Gritting Update

Thanks to Matt and David G who went out tonight to grit the hill. Do though take it carefully, our volunteers go out once, DCC is going out at least twice tonight on their routes.
If anyone else would like to join the team, we are short of drivers, it cannot be done without a 4WD and tow bar. If you would like to help then the Chair of the Parish Council, Francis Miles can explain the position on insurance.
