Pavement Works

Back in in South Molton I wonder what on earth Devon County Council think they’re doing? Most of the pavement outside Spar is barricaded off, and pedestrians have to walk in the road. All the parking on that side of The Enhancement is now suspended. As it’s a Bank Holiday weekend I can’t imagine any work being done until next Tuesday.  All that seems to have been done is a thin strip of paving stones from one side of the pavement to the other has been lifted. What is the purpose of this? I could list several places where the pavement and roads need urgent repairs. I feel an email to Cllr Yabsley (our Devon County Councillor) coming on . . .
