Beware Scaffolding !
Posted in Roads on Wednesday October 19, 2022| Leave a Comment »
We have some roofers at the house this morning, fixing the damage done by vans clipping the roof trying to turn onto Kiln Lane from Creamery Lane.
They’ve erected some scaffolding which is in the road just prior to the left turn onto Kiln Lane as you come up Creamery Lane.
Getting past might be a bit tight (should be fine for cars) so people may want to go via Kiln Lane if they need to access the houses above.
They should be finished by this afternoon.
Thanks,

Pump Hill Tree Down

A tree has fallen on Pump Hill. Some of the branches are hanging over the road. Charles B has offered to cut back the offending branches once the wind dies down a little. Take care if you are driving or walking around Pump Hill.
Road Closed Matlock Bath
Posted in Roads on Monday February 21, 2022| Leave a Comment »
Just in case anyone has to venture out : I’ve heard that you cannot get to Matlock through Matlock Bath ( the road is closed between Cromford and the railway bridge going into Matlock) due to concerns about the wall retaining the river. There is also flooding in Crown Square, the park and the A6 (The Arc leisure centre road).

Damage to Verges
Posted in Parish Council, Roads on Thursday February 17, 2022| 2 Comments »
Yesterday a large vehicle appears to have been done significant damage to the verges on both Creamery Lane and Kiln Lane.
If anyone knows which vehicle caused this damage could they please share this information with the Parish Council.
Kiln Lane Corner. You can help!
Posted in Parish Council, Roads on Monday January 31, 2022| 1 Comment »
We’ve been asked by the Parish Council to post the following-
On several occasions the Parish Council have been contacted by residents concerned about vehicles getting stuck on the corner between Kiln Lane and Creamery Lane.
The Council is aware of the hazard and inconvenience this causes. Unfortunately the Parish Council has no powers install signage or other measures to reduce the risk. Previous attempts to get the Highways Authority, Derbyshire County Council (DCC), to install suitable warning signs have been unsuccessful.
However they did suggest that a record be kept every time this happens. This could be used to try again to justify some action.
The Council are asking residents who observe problems on the corner to e-mail the parish Clerk on clerk@parwichparishcouncil.co.uk .
Please include as much information as you can. This could include, but not be limited to:
- Date
- Time of day
- What type of vehicle was it?
- How long any vehicle was stuck?
- Was a recovery vehicle required to move it?
- Was the road beyond the corner blocked?
- Was the vehicle damaged?
- Was any property damaged?
- Was there any other damage?
- A photo if possible.
Even if is quickly resolved please make a report to add to the evidence.
… and don’t assume someone else will report it!
The more reports we get, even of the same incident, the more impact we hope this will have with DCC .
The number of incidents reported will be logged in the Parish Council minutes. When this makes what the Council feels is a compelling case we will write to them again.

Grit Bins
Posted in Roads on Wednesday December 8, 2021| Leave a Comment »
Not sure this is the right forum, but yesterday morning a van got stuck on the ice at Kiln Lane/Creamery Lane.
We helped get it moving using the last of the salt from the Kiln Lane salt bin.
I have reported this to the County Council for a refill.
I don’t know if it’s worth people checking the other Village salt bins before the weather turns again?

A Plea – Please Slow Down
Posted in People, Roads on Friday August 13, 2021| Leave a Comment »
Please can I ask all drivers to slow down when rounding the bend at Dale’s Yard.This afternoon at approx. 5:30 pm, a red car heading out of Parwich in the middle of the road, came round the bend much faster than is appropriate, skidding to get back on his/her side of the road. It’s certainly not the first time: a Tate oil tanker, a big black estate car and another car, all had to take evasive action recently to avoid hitting me whilst I was ‘crawling’ round that bend. Visibility is zero and there is nowhere to escape at that point when driving towards Parwich.
Thanks.
Kind regards,

Collision
Posted in News, Police, Roads on Thursday August 6, 2020| 2 Comments »
Some time between Wednesday afternoon and Thursday morning someone has driven into our car while it was parked outside our house opposite to Pump Hill. We didn’t hear it happen and no note has been left. (see photos) To hit it going forward would have meant the other vehicle was on the wrong side of the road. But there are no skid marks or damage down the side of the car. Perhaps someone reversed into it? If anyone saw this happen or remembers passing and seeing (or not) the damage caused then any information would be gratefully received. Or if you have seen any suspicious new damage on any other vehicle!

Traffic
Posted in Roads on Tuesday June 30, 2020| Leave a Comment »
We received this from John V. But I’m sure it echoes a lot of people’s thoughts. We’re all using more delivery services than ever right now and the drivers must be under huge pressure to meet delivery targets.
“Can I just ask that everyone reminds themselves of the dangers of walking on roads through the village. I don’t mean to patronise, but I’m becoming increasingly concerned at the speed of some and mostly delivery vans entering the village from Alsop. I’ve also seen a sudden trend for reversing vans and lorries around here, where there are no pavements, sometimes pretty quickly.I’m guessing these behaviours will be seen elsewhere in the village and particularly at a time when children are not at school, it would be great to know that they too had been reminded of the need to be aware of traffic, even, but maybe especially in a place like Parwich. Thanks…”

Parking Charges are Back
Posted in Local government, Roads, Services on Thursday May 14, 2020| 1 Comment »
Parking charges to be reintroduced in the Dales
Charges will be reintroduced in Derbyshire Dales District Council’s pay and display car parks this weekend following the Government’s decision to relax coronavirus travel restrictions.
The District Council suspended charges at the start of the lockdown to help local residents to make any essential journeys during the early stages of the crisis.
Charges will apply again from this Saturday after the authority revealed it has lost around £375,000 in car parking revenues since suspending charges at the end of March. But Dales residents can continue to park for free 19 hours every day using their resident parking permit.
A Council spokesperson said: “Suspending charges was a step we wanted to take to help our residents in the first months of the crisis, but the Government’s decision to effectively open up the Dales to day trippers means we have to re-impose controls on our car parks, particularly the short stay car parks in our busy town centres.
“While we are currently appealing to anyone contemplating a trip to the Derbyshire Dales to think twice because of the potential impact on our communities and reduced local services, we have to accept that, like it or not, some people will travel. Indeed some of our car parks have been at capacity over the past two days.
“We hope that residents will understand that while we have done our best to support their essential journeys by making parking free during the lockdown to date, the resulting loss of income will have long term impacts on the Council’s finances and our ability to sustain the services we deliver for local people unless this situation is quickly addressed. Our stance is in accordance with actions being taken by other authorities in response to the Government’s new guidelines.”
While necessary work began today (Thursday) to put up signage and reconfigure the pay and display machines at around 50 car parks across the district, charges will not be enforced until Saturday, giving local people time to readjust.

More Funding to Monitor Speeding
Posted in Police, Roads on Monday March 16, 2020| Leave a Comment »
Derbyshire Police and Crime Commissioner Hardyal Dhindsa has taken action on public concerns over speeding – pledging additional funding to expand community speed monitoring across all corners of the county.
The Commissioner, who recently announced the addition of two new full-time posts to coordinate and manage the county’s Community Speed Watch (CSW) programme, has now revealed funding for 20 new ‘grab bags’ containing speed monitoring equipment, which will be deployed to all policing units in Derbyshire.
Speeding remains the most frequently raised issue in all of Derbyshire’s towns, villages and neighbourhoods.
Acting on the concerns raised during the PCC’s countywide #D383 tour, Mr Dhindsa has pledged to expand CSW and make it easier for local people to proactively address problems in their villages and neighbourhoods to reduce road traffic collisions. (more…)
