Watch your speed in Burton: New driver feedback signs in place

New driver feedback signs are now in place in Burton Burton residents, concerned about the volume of speeding traffic through the village - which has very few pavements and a number of children walking to and from the school bus - decided to do something about the issue. Following positive meetings with Burton Community Council, residents put forward the idea of driver feedback signs, one for each end of the village. New signs are now in place and, so far, appear to be having a positive effect on the speed of traffic passing through the village. Burton Community Council has said the project would not have been possible without the energy and enthusiasm of people in the village, especially the fundraising group, led by Gail Smith and Nicola Lund, the support of the wider Burton community, a grant from Valero Energy Ltd and the contribution of Pembrokeshire County Council.

Little Celeste, the giant crane coming to the Haven waterway

PEMBROKE Refinery is preparing for the construction of the biggest crane ever seen on site. This colossal piece of engineering, nicknamed as Little Celeste, is currently being constructed and will dominate the Haven skyline for many weeks to come. Over 9,000 tonnes of earth have already been removed and 18,000 tonnes of hardcore brought in to provide firm foundations for the remarkable all-electric SGC-90 ‘Little Celeste’ used by heavy lift specialists Sarens. It will be used to lift the replacement Depropaniser and Settler units that many people have recently seen travelling down the Haven waterway. With a ring diameter of 35 metres, a maximum counterweight of 2,700 tonnes, and a load moment of 99,000 tonnes, it can be configured in a variety of ways; with main boom lengths of 100, 120, and 130 metres and a small jib of 200 tonnes.
