NEW SUBSURFACE GEOCELL PATH AND RESTORATION OF SURFACE

Notice Description

Witchford Parish Council is proposing to provide new subsurface plastic geocell grids along the grassed section of Restricted Byway No2 running between The Common and a point approximately 31m west of Manor Court Road Witchford.
