AGAINST the backdrop of moko jumbies dressed in the national colours, dancing to the rhythm of the drum, a mural of two cultural figures – the late Torrance Iqbal Mohammed and Lodrick “Rollo” Foster – was unveiled on the Pleasantville Wall of Fame at Chaconia Avenue, San Fernando on Monday morning.
Labour s Jim Robbins, who represents the Rodbourne area, said action is needed in Morris Street. But Swindon Borough Council has argued such an expensive fix is not necessary yet – and claims the issue had not been reported. Figures from the Department for Transport showed Swindon would receive £3.5 million to maintain roads across the borough in 2021-22. That is £1.2m less than the £4.7m provided in the current financial year – a reduction of 26 per cent. Readers highlighted pothole-strewn paths in their neighbourhoods.
