Teignbridge are going to do their best to get the remains of the tree cleared today, or at least moved off the path I understand that their contractors are prioritising making trees safe, and then coming back to clear the materials as time allows. Sadly they are having to deal with a lot of such situations across the district

He has spoken directly to the schools and we are prov ...
@MrsC. That's not the point Margaret is making. She is just confirming that the MP and others were present at the meeting, as that was being questioned by Carer.
@Carer , Anne Marie Morris was there, wearing a very nice orange ensemble and a hard hat. Easy to miss in that unfamiliar get-up. :)
I was included in the delegation to meet Prime Minister. I put the problem to him and explained the anxiety for Parents. He promised to follow this up, and asked one of his staff to talk immediately to Network Rail. I'm now told there will be an extra 3 movements each morning / afternoon to Exeter and Torre. Mr Mellor from NR has promised to talk to the Colleges about how they can work closer ...
