Gamston bridge

One of the aspects of the airfield development which, it seems, has come as a surprise, is the bridge which will cross the newly-rebuilt Lings Bar Road/A52/Tollerton Lane junction. I’m certain there’s a very good reason why this pivotal piece of work hasn’t received the same degree of promotion as the rest of the airfield development by the Gamston/RBC councillors.

There are three proposals on the planning table which are – currently – open to consultation. You can view these plans and proposals on the Rushcliffe Borough Council planning portal, and make your comments known there.

But if you want to see these proposals, and work out how they will impact people who live, and move around in, Gamston, and how traffic which uses the A52 will be impacted, the three options are:

Option 1:

Option 2:

Option 3:

Please don’t forget to make your comments known on the planning portal. To do that, click on this link and enter the planning reference: 20/03244/OUT (or you can just type into the search box ‘Gamston bridge’).

You might also like to email the Gamston councillors, just to make sure your views are heard. The Gamston councillors are:

• Davinder Virdi (Conservative). Davinder is RBCs Cabinet Member for Finance
• Jonathan Wheeler (Conservative). Jonathan is RBCs Cabinet Member for Transformation, Leisure, and Wellbeing. NB: Jonathan is also the Nottinghamshire County Councillor for West Bridgford South (which includes Gamston), so he’s sure to have his finger on the pulse of these things.
