Postponement of A2 Closure High Street Newington
Southern Gas Networks have now decided to defer the closure of the A2 High Street, Newington which was due to have started on 25 July 2011.
This decision has been taken following extensive local consultation and takes into account the significant issues raised.
A road closure will still be needed for some of these works, and it is likely this will be Easter 2012.
The existing main is in the middle of the carriageway where the road is very narrow.
All other options have been considered to avoid closing the A2 but there is no satisfactory alternative to a road closure for some of the works.

Bredgar and Wormshill Light Railway's July the 3rd Open Day
This month we are expecting to steam 3 engines and the normal bunch of steam vehicles and have some old tractors doing their bit. We have several car clubs intending to join us as well as the Harley Davidson Club - always interesting.
At the last open day Meridian Tonight were there doing some filming - if you missed it or would like a repeat - you can see it on the ITV player
The Bluebells are gone but the grounds will be ideal for that relaxing day and giving the kids a run out! Bring a picnic and go down to the woods.

Come and See the Alvis Car Club too. |
After last years successful issue of season tickets we are offering annual membership at an even lower price of £30 per adult which will include one child. Extra children are £12. This will get you into all public and any member only events for 12 months. Bring a passport photo with you and you can start saving on the day.
Other news: the little Simplex loco acquired last year in a pretty dishevelled state is getting closer to being fully restored. This has meant fabricating some of the engine covers and exhaust system from photographs and drawings made by Tony, one of our volunteers. Not easy but as you can see when you visit, it now looks better than it did when
it arrived!
Visit us at: www.bwlr.co.uk to find out more about BWLR and events.
