Bolton Neighbourhood Development Plan

Bolton in Bloom
The theme this year is RHS Campaign Greening Grey
Britain for Wildlife
Our success is very much the result of collective community effort. It’s not just what the judges see on the day that counts. Amongst other things, they look at year round activities, evidence of sustainable, nature friendly initiatives that involve different groups of people, and use of recycled products.
Phone Box
The phone box has been removed.
Car parking in the village
The PC has been requested to relay some concerns about poor car parking practices. The main problems are double parking outside the school at pick up time and parking on pavements, which restricts the passage of buggies and disability scooters. I know people do this to avoid blocking the road for passing vehicles, but please bear in mind that people do have to pass on the pavement also.
Bolton Wanderers Walking Group
The inaugural walk in December (a 9 mile circular in the Great Asby area) attracted 12 walkers and was a great success. Monthly walks are planned. The walks are a little longer and more challenging than those of the Morland Walking Group.
It is free to join, not a Club where costs and rules apply
To join the Bolton group or for more information visit the Walking Group page or contract
