Dear All,    As you will know the sewage rehabilitation works will be in the town over the next few weeks, there are three listed below.  When i first saw this i was worried and asked for clarification on the times of closure and our local Street Works Coordinator gave me the assurance below regarding access to the areas.   Will ask for a telephone number for the site manager for any problems, hope this helps.

Any questions 01503 264823 or atoms@cornwall.gov.uk    Thanks Armand

Afternoon Mr Toms

As we discussed earlier, the road closures will hopefully be during the day and open by night unless the contractor come across some unforeseen problems.

During the closures of Higher Market Street, Buller Street and Fore Street a one way system will be implemented using a convoy system/vehicle and marshals. The traffic will be escorted through the diversion route and taken to the Church End/Quay areas.

Any deliveries that are required on the diversion route/closure during the day will be made either on the in-bound direction, or the outbound direction. All the marshals and drivers will be briefed on the system to allow for these deliveries.

However South West Water and the contractor are hoping that the businesses can arrange with their suppliers to delivery early mornings before the closures commence.

Thanks

Tony

ST MARTINS ROAD AND SANDPLACE ROAD UPDATE

ST MARTINS ROAD AND SANDPLACE ROAD UPDATE
Hi All,   Just to let you know the latest on the above, the piling on St Martins Road will be complete today.  This allows works to start on Sandplace Road because of the lowered risk of slippage. The tree officer will be out on Monday to inspect the trees, the contractor will be starting work concreteing the bank. Then the drilling company will be pinning the bank back to the rock under the road.  
Whilst Sandplace Road is closed they will carry out works further along the road outside the houses to do some stabilisation works and repairs.  When i have further inormation i will pass this on.
Thanks Armand

Coastal Footpath at Monkey Santuary

Dear All,  Recieved this informaiton a little earlier today, please pass onto all who may need to know, if i can get agreement from the council i will be asking for volunteers to help with repairs.  Thanks Armand

Dear Richard, Armand and Edwina.

Following my calls this PM I have attached images of the problems caused by the recent floods (and continued wet weather)on the section of Coast Path between Windsworth (the Monkey Sanctuary) and Looe Hill as shown in red below. As you can see from the attached images this is a significant set of challenges ranging from land slips and slumps through to fallen trees and collapsed steps. We have therefore been forced to close the path and advise the public to use the public highway from Millandreath to Loose Hill as a temporary diversion. A 21 day closure notice is in place but I anticipate this will need to be extended in the short term to enable us to appraise the issues and identify the next steps. We are currently awaiting a site visit from our soils team and a detailed report identifying the possible causes of failure and providing guidance on which we can act.

I think it would be fair to say that we are seeing unprecedented levels of damage to our path network and the Coast Path in particular has been hard hit in south east Cornwall. Given the continuing wet weather it is likely we will see further failures due to the saturated soils and this could lead to more closures or even the need for complete re-alignment of sections of the path. All of this will add to the concerns of local residents and businesses and we are very conscious that this also falls within the anniversary year of the South West Coast path.

At the moment we are trying to collate all the issues and ensure that we fulfil our duty of care across the county which is pulling hard on our resources. Once this has been fulfilled we will re-visit the highway diversions and path closures and try to ensure the best options are available to the public, particularly where the route is likely to remain closed into the spring or summer. We will therefore need to look closely at a communications plan and I suggest we discuss a press release for your wards once we have been in receipt of Richards report and are clearer on the options and timescales..

I am sorry to be the bearer of bad news but wanted to make sure you were in the loop as things happen on the ground. If you have any queries or wish to discuss this in further detail then please give me a call on my mobile or drop me a line.

Kindest regards

David Attwell

Subject: Monkey Sanctuary and Struddicks landslips

Richard and David

I went out to have a look at a report of a series of landslips on the coast path between Seaton and Bodigga.

I have attached a series of images which show the extent of the damage.  There are two distinct areas, firstly the area just to the south east of the Monkey Sanctuary where there has been a sizable slip at the same point as there has been one previously.  Photos within wooded section with steps.

The second section is to the East in the National Trust area of Struddicks.  There are 2no semi circular slips that have been enlarged by recent slips.  The surface of the path is not directly affected, but they are now within 5 to 10 metres.  I was not able to take good photos of the two slips.

The path is currently closed under a 21 day order and there is a diversion in place along the road.

Richard – if you are looking at this in the near future then it might be wise if I went with you as there is a route through some private sheds which will save a large amount of walking.  There are also a number of hung up trees which are a danger and there is no phone signal.

Thanks

Dave
