Road Closures

HAMPSHIRE HIGHWAYS 

Works at various locations on, Pyle Lane, Horndean. 

The works are programmed to start at Pyle Lane, Horndean Mon. 19 June and will last three days. Due to the nature of the work and for safety reasons, it is necessary to carry the work out under a road closure with a signed diversion route in place. The road will be reopened outside each working shift.

For more information visit OneNetwork - https://one.network/?tm=GB130854794

Whilst there is an allowance within the time periods shown above for delays, there may be times when we have to postpone works at very short notice; based on the latest weather forecasts, this can occur just prior to works commencing. We will always look to provide up to date information wherever we can, but sometimes these last-minute decisions can be difficult to relay to the travelling public in a timely manner. When we can, any significant changes to the scheduled dates will be made clear on the yellow sign boards located at the works limits.

Information signs advising road users of the works will be erected before the start of works. Letters have been sent to local residents and businesses, to advise them accordingly.

Should you have any questions or require further information please do not hesitate to contact me.

LOCAL PLAN CONSULTATION

tbd header june 23

Our monthly round-up of what's happening in your district.

In this issue: cost of living support, fly-tipping, Armed Forces Day, new roving council meetings, raising money for good causes and more...

Please follow our social media channels for regular updates

tbd outreach worker

Extra support for those who need it most

New outreach worker is ready to help if you’re struggling with the cost of living.

The rising cost of living is impacting all of us in different ways, but when life becomes difficult, we’re here to support you.

Our services are ready to provide help and support for you with housing, benefits and council tax.

And we are working with lots of organisations in the community to deliver the help you need, where you need it.

Citizens Advice East Hampshire is using £18,000 from our welfare fund to pay for an outreach worker who will meet residents across the district to make sure those who need it most know how to get all the support available.

This was one of EHDC Leader Richard Millard's 12 new welfare schemes.

tbd fly-tipping its criminal

Catching the fly-tippers

Fly-tipping is a blight on our beautiful East Hampshire countryside, it damages the environment and can be harmful to people and local wildlife.

The council will not tolerate those who blight the lives of our residents and businesses. Our officers will stop at nothing to find the culprits of this vile crime to bring prosecutions whenever we can.

Our latest investigation has led to a court conviction for a fly-tip in West Worldham.

Don't get caught out

By law, you are personally responsible for ensuring the safe and correct disposal of your unwanted items, even if you have paid someone else to do it. If your waste is found dumped illegally you could be fined an unlimited amount or face a prison sentence.

An approved waste carrier will be licensed, and will provide paperwork signing over the responsibility for the waste from you to their service.

Find out about fly-tipping

tbd armed forces day 23

Flying the flag for our armed forces

Flag will fly all week until Armed Forces Day on Saturday 24 June

We are flying the Armed Forces Day flag over Penns Place to show our support for the brave men and women who do so much to protect our way of life at home and abroad.

Armed Forces Day is on Saturday 24 June and serves as an opportunity for us to say thank you for their incredible work.

It is a national event and authorities up and down the country will be flying the flag in honour of this special day.

The armed forces includes the British Army, Royal Air Force and Royal Navy. They're involved in combat, peacekeeping and humanitarian aid. Together, they’re responsible for the safety and security of the UK.

tbd get into netball

Want to get into netball?

Get up and go for it

Join Get Up and Go East Hampshire every Thursday at Taro Leisure Centre, Petersfield, for Back to Netball and Walking Netball.

Back to Netball is an introduction to netball, primarily for women who haven’t played for a long time or are complete beginners!

Walking Netball is a slower version of netball for those who might not be as mobile.

Juggling work, kids, and everything in between, can make it hard to take the first shot at the goal, but with the support of your coach and fellow netball returnees/newbies, you'll be on court playing in no time.

Walking Netball runs from 4.45-5.45pm and Back to Netball starts at 5.45-6.45pm.

tbd putting crew safety first

Early morning bin collections to keep our crews safe

With the current sweltering heat during the day, we’ve been working hard to avoid heat exhaustion in our crews, with lots of additional water and breaks during the day.

Working on a bin crew is a tiring job at the best of times, but in temperatures over 20ºC for most of the day, it can become unsafe.

We decided to start collecting bins earlier in the morning, so the crews have a better chance of being finished before the hottest part of the day.

Crews may be leaving the depot at around 5am, so please ensure that your bin is out the night before your collection day.

Early collections started on Wednesday 21 June.

Sign up for free bin updates for your area

and finally...

Stay safe when the weather's hot

Most of us welcome hot weather, but when it's too hot, there are health risks.

We've seen extreme heat for long periods recently. This summer, when the weather is very hot, make sure it does not harm you or anyone you know.

It’s important to take extra steps to stay safe and well:

  • Drink plenty of water
  • Apply sun cream
  • Stay out of direct sunlight in the middle of the day

And remember to check in with family, friends and neighbours who may be more vulnerable.

tbd local plan

Your District, Your Views

Help create a Local Plan that tackles tough issues

We want the views of local residents on the issues and priorities that will impact East Hampshire (outside the South Downs National Park Authority) up to 2040.

The Local Plan affects how the district will grow over the next 20 years, so we will be asking tough questions on important issues such as the climate emergency and population change - and we need to know your views.

Your input to the Local Plan will help shape the future of your community, and for the first time we are using a new online platform that will make it easier than ever to get involved.

Our new Local Plan consultation is live right now. So please get involved ...we can’t do it without you!

The consultation started on Monday 21 November and will run for eight weeks until Friday 16 January.

The best way to take part is online through the link below.

You can browse the various topics covered by the consultation and leave your comments quickly and easily.





Save money and keep cosy this winter

You may be entitled to free energy saving improvements or an interest free loan which could help reduce your bills.

Energy costs are a significant factor in the rising cost of living. A draughty, energy inefficient home will need more energy to keep warm and comfortable. Winter has started to take hold, so it's time to make changes if you can.

Improvements can be made quickly and easily to make a home cost less to run.

There are grant schemes to help residents on low incomes, which could cover all the costs of changes.

And now, residents who do not qualify for other support can apply to us for a five-year interest free COSY loan of up to £4,000 to cover 30% of the cost of improvements.

Make your home more energy efficient
