They won't be told

The grey revolution spilt onto the public highway on Friday when Lodge Road, Villa Park and other residents made their voices heard. Cranfield's shock troops symbolically blocked the road for five minutes to send a message to housing giant Persimmon that Lodge Road is NO THROUGH ROAD for either construction traffic or hundreds of daily car movements. They are also writing to top Persimmon Executive Andrew Hammond asking why the company said two years ago that the access could be changed but has now gone very quiet. These people clearly do not plan to be quiet themselves. Lodge Road residents want as many Cranfield people as possible to write to Persimmon raising their concerns about access and the impact on Lodge road – regardless of whether they live near it or not. You should write to: Andrew Hammond, Managing Director, Persimmon Homes Midlands, 3 Waterside Way, Bedford Road, Northampton NN4 7XD.
