Poets Meadow footpath link to begin in December

A new footpath link connecting Poets Meadow with Footpath 736 is set to begin in December, led by a local resident, working with Hampshire County Councillor Juliet Henderson. This resident-led project is being delivered by Hampshire County Council’s Countryside Project Team.

The Countryside Project Team have advised that the footpath works will link the footway already constructed by the developer by culverting the ditch and surfacing over the top. The surface for both the connection and FP736 will be Hamer Warren, which is a compacted surface but not ‘bound’ like tarmac.

The contract for the works has been awarded, and they’re due to commence at the beginning of December. This is exactly the kind of resident-led improvement that makes a real difference to how people can enjoy our local environment.
