LETTER: Concerns over width of new Reaseheath road
Dear Editor,
I have noticed that roadworks renovations are currently underway at the Reaseheath Roundabout.
While infrastructure improvements are always welcome, I assume these works are in preparation for the long-delayed Reaseheath bypass A51 spine road, which is now (finally) set to open in June – more than three years behind schedule.

LETTER: Disappointment over lack of free parking days in Nantwich
Dear Editor
I am writing to express my deep disappointment and sadness over the decision not to offer free car parking days in Nantwich this year in the lead-up to Christmas.
This has been a much-valued initiative in recent years, providing a real boost to local businesses during the festive season.
