Quiet Lane

After years of cajoling, arguments about cost and responsibility and, to be absolutely blunt, some foot dragging in the old Beds County Council there is a small 'Quiet Lane' sign at the junction of Wood End Road and Lodge Road and at the end of the houses near Villa Park. I can't say how many hours of meetings and megabytes of emails went into having those two signs erected. But believe me it was a lot. At one time Amey said it would cost £10,000.

The funny thing is the breach in the hedge which Persimmon has driven into Home Farm is within the quiet lane area. So how is that compatible with earth movers, cement lorries and loads of bricks going in an out? 'Not' is the answer I think.
