Dear Editor,
In 2018 Crewe residents were promised a £48m Royal Arcade masterplan, a new cinema, gym, restaurants, shops, a 450 space multi storey car park and a new bus station, off Victoria Street and Queensway, by Christmas 2020.
We are now in 2023 and what have we got?
Nantwich residents are being urged to have their say on a masterplan of ideas for the town’s Barony Park.
Cheshire East Council, Nantwich Town Council, the Friends of the Barony and Nantwich in Bloom have developed the “vision” for future improvements to the community space.
Councillors have granted outline permission for an 850-home development close to Leighton Hospital on the outskirts of Crewe.
The scheme forms part of Cheshire East Council’s wider North West Crewe Package and a £36.5 million investment in the area’s highways and infrastructure.
A Cabinet councillor at Cheshire East says the new fence around Barony Park in Nantwich is part of a “green space masterplan”.
And Cllr Mick Warren believes people will “quickly get used to it” as fencing rails of varying heights are set to be installed around the perimeter of the park.

Bentley Motors looks set to be given the green light by Cheshire East Council on its latest redevelopment plans for the Pyms Lane site in Crewe.
The firm, which employs thousands of people in Nantwich and Crewe, wants to build two, four-storey office blocks as part of its revamped campus.
Work on a much-needed Reaseheath A51 bypass promised as part of the massive 1,100-home Kingsley Fields development, is at least three years away.
Reaseheath College Principal Meredydd David told concerned residents that work on the bypass is not due to start until the third year of the development.
Residents will get the chance to quiz Reaseheath College bosses over its expansion bid as part of the plan to build 1,000 homes on green land on the edge of Nantwich.
The college has organised a public meeting to outline its future development, which is tied in to the North West Nantwich Consortium’s proposed housing and retail site at Kingsley Fields.
