The Liberal Democrats have been asked by residents and the School to look into traffic problems around Marlborough School. Your Lib Dem Councillor attended the school Thursday to see the problem for ourselves.

Empress Liberal Democrats reported concerns over the water company doing a test of thousands of gallons of water pouring out into Pierrefondes Avenue on Thursday. The road was slippery and there seemed to be no action being taken by the workers to prevent ice covering the road.
