Cuddington flood defences ….

Posted on August 20th, 2011, by David.Miller

It’s not exactly a sea wall…
When the A49 was resurfaced a few years ago, a sunken kerb across the entrance to the drive to Cuddington station was removed. It has now been replaced and should mean less rainwater running down the drive and onto the station. It should also mean less of a hazard to pedestrians coming off the footpath along Norley Road (beside the piece of white fence in the picture) and encountering cars cutting the corner. Thanks are due to the many agencies who have contributed to getting this work done when finances are squeezed (Cheshire West and Chester Council, Network Rail, Northern Rail, the Parish Council). Even the MCRUA Blog has been pressing for action – see our Network Rail “fix list” for 3 October last year

    Has it been tested yet under storm conditions?

    No, but it gave my bike quite a bump!
