Cllr Fraser Macpherson, Liberal Democrat West End Councillor, today (Sunday 8th April) published his April 2007 West End Community Council Update.
In March residents in Westland Gardens and Westland Avenue asked Robin Lawrence and the Park Ward Focus Team for help as the surface of their road was badly neglected.
