Case Study

Funding for road signs and cones in Ermington

Ermington Parish Council were granted funding to purchase road signs and cones to use in the Parish.

The road signs and cones will be used to help warn people of hazards. These hazards include potholes and flooding. By having this equipment to use it will hopefully warn road users of the hazards meaning the roads in the Parish will be safer to use.
