Speeding Problems in Killinghall Row - Middleton St George
|
We wish to update all residents in the vicinity of Killinghall Row on the progress that’s been made regarding the ongoing speeding problem which has been recently highlighted to us.
At a recent meeting with Darlington Borough Council Highways Department we requested that a speed monitor be installed in Killinghall Row to gauge the speed of all traffic over a seven day period. The Assistant Director of Highways has agreed to this and once the data is collected, depending on the outcome, it will be presented to Durham Constabulary with a view to enforcement in that area.
We must thank Mr Young for bringing this issue to our attention.
Should residents want to take this further, we will be pleased to discuss this with you at our Ward Surgery on Tuesday 28th October 2008 at 18.15hrs in the village school.
We will keep you informed of further updates as we get them.

Calor Village of the Year - 2008/2009
|
We were delighted to announce that MSG was chosen as the overall winner of the Calor Tees Valley Village of the Year 2008 and we attended the presentation evening in the Oakwood Centre, Eaglescliffe last Wednesday evening (1st October) to receive our prize of £500 and our village plaque.
We would like to thank the community centre members and the village youth club representatives who joined us on the evening which was hosted by Stewart McFarlane MBE.
The parish council and the community centre have agreed that the £500 winnings should be donated to the youth club members to help them provide equipment for the newly revamped youth club in the community centre basement.
The win means we have qualified for the regional competition and the work begins now on our entry which has to be submitted by the end of November and which will be followed by a presentation to the judges next March.
Sadberge won an 'Eco' award in the 'Special Achievemt awards' for the energy saving project carried out in the village with the Energy Saving Trust. Sadberge also received their prize for winning the Northern Region Competition 2007 and members are looking forward to visiting The Guildhall in London on 2nd December to see if they can win the national final. GOOD LUCK SADBERGE !
