Havant
Liberal Democrats

County Councillor Ann Buckley was delighted to attend the opening of the new buildings at the Havant Academy. In 2010 Ann campaigned at local meetings and in Winchester to keep a school in West Leigh when it was under threat of closure.

A resident reported an area in Middle Park way, Leigh Park by the traffic lights (see below photos).

Lib Dems were able to get the overgrown bank of the Hermitage stream cleared of vegitation and piles of rubbish, and have a shopping trolley removed from the stream on the other side of the road.  The railings will also be repainted and the brickwork on the bridge repaired.

The Havant Lib Dem Leigh Park team have been pressing for improvements to the local Greywell Shopping Centre. The area is at last under new ownership and we are told that their intentions are to improve the shopping centre, including painting and work to improve the pigeon problem.

Conservative run Hampshire County Council have failed to replace this rusting and broken railway bridge at Havant Station. The guttering is held in place with string.

Residents we spoke to feel let down by this shabby bridge. Over £40,000 has been spent just propping the bridge up with scaffolding.

Councillor Ann Buckley said "This is the so-called gateway to the town centre and the Public Service Plaza just down the road but is a disgrace to the neighbourhood."
