Traffic Notice-
There are works scheduled during the first quarter of this calendar year on Heath Road between Putticks Lane and Woodgates Road. We have not been given an exact date for these works.
The Parish Council held a series of workshops to investigate new projects and initiatives for development of facilities in the village.
The projects were initially identified as priorities during the first Neighbourhood Plan and have been added to by the work undertaken during the revision of the plan.
The projects take in the impact of the growth of the village, and where we expect the demand to be increasing. It is expected that the investment programme will be funded from a combination of PC reserves, CIL monies and applications for grants from other organisations.
The results of the workshops are outlined in full in a paper presented to the PC and which can be found on our website.
The projects will undergo further feasibility studies with the results being brought back to the PC between now and Sept 2024.
The key points from this are:
- The projects arise from the consultation on our first NP and include the work to revise the NP.
- successful consultation on NP revisions on 3 Feb and associated survey indicates strong village support for these initiatives
- PC has scoped the projects and will report back to the PC with feasibility studies between now and Sept 2024

No Cold Calling Zones and No Cold Calling stickers
How to take action on unwanted cold callers at your door.
A No Cold Calling Zone (NCCZ) is a nominated area where residents have stated that they do not want traders to cold call at their homes without being invited. They are set up if they meet proportionality criteria that includes incidents of doorstep crime or distraction burglary, are a population more susceptible to doorstep crime, and are within a defined geographic area.
Residents in the nominated NCCZ area are consulted with and with their agreement a NCCZ is set up and an information pack, door sticker and street signage provided.
Trading Standards have set up zones in Suffolk, in partnership with residents, Councillors, Police colleagues and partners.
The zones have been designed to:
- reduce doorstep crime and distraction burglaries
- deter cold callers
- educate residents and empower them not to engage with cold callers
There are currently nearly 200 zones throughout Suffolk, protecting approximately 10,000 homes. Further zones are always under development.
Over 20,000 further homes are individually protected by the supply of a No Cold Calling door sticker.
