​​​​​​​​​​​IT IS A BUSINESS NO ONE WANTS TO BE CAUGHT UP IN!
While out strimming the over grown area of the woodland walk entrance to the cricket field in readiness for the Gala, Rob who works for the parish council was caught up in a pile of dog pooh left laying in wait by some irresponsible dog owner who has no care for anyone but themselves. It is a thoughtless act from people who have no social conscience.

 

Can you imagine if them or their children were caught up and covered in dog Pooh how outraged they would be?  It is time this behaviour stopped it was only a few days ago a man wearing an orange (I presume hi viz jacket ) was seen leaving the top entrance to the cricket field without clearing up after his dog.

 

Please if anyone knows or sees this kind of behaviour take note of the time and date and contact the Parish Council in confidence as we have cameras covering the whole cricket field and it would help us in our endeavours to bring these irresponsible uncaring dog owners to task!  

 

The Parish Council have just installed new signage on the field in the hope it will help! The Doncaster ground maintenance teams are up against the same problem and objecting to use strimmers in areas of Doncaster where this problem exists and rightly so as it is a health and safety issue that no one should have to be faced with!
Thankyou - WEG & WPC

MISUSE OF WARMSWORTH GRASS VERGES.

Concerns have been raised at the ongoing deterioration of the grass verges in Warmsworth. The green spaces we have all taken for granted over the years are slowly being destroyed and we are appealing to the DMBC to help reinstate and protect them.

All three roads Mill Lane, Sheffield Road and Lords Head Lane verges are owned by DMBC Highways and concerns have been raised by the Parish Council and Warmsworth Environmental group at the neglect we are experiencing from vehicles misusing the verges and utility companies also disturbing the verges and not reinstating as per their contract. The recent utility company City Fibre were attempting to reseed in the middle of winter so we are now left with mud where we once had grass.

A few years ago some residents on Mill Lane were granted licences to plant shrubs and stop vehicles parking on the verges and this has been a success. More recently we have had a requests from some residents on Lords Head Lane for shrub licences and DMBC are renewing the verge licences to help residents who are keen to reinstate th

e green space outside their properties which has been lost to unsightly patches of mud where there was once grass.

Over time the WEG are looking to work with the DMBC ground maintenance teams on the best ways of reintroducing and preserving the verges.

As a village we are very fortunate to have not only green space in our 3 parks but also green space around our village and it is important as a community we respect and protect these verges which are owned by DMBC and should not be open to abuse.

We hope that residents will support the WEG in our endeavours to have a greener and cleaner environment for all.  Thankyou - WEG

BUS SERVICES 

Unfortunately due to funding cutbacks and Mayoral pledges, certain services in Doncaster have been curtailed or cancelled completely.

There is funding to restore some of these services but the Office of Mayor for South Yorkshire and Travel South Yorkshire have not always been able to find a new tender for the services which have been withdrawn, indeed some may NEVER return. 

The main changes are in the early morning, late evening or on Sundays and some frequencies during the day have also changed. 

The full details for the whole of South Yorkshire are in this link:
