Footway improvements adjacent to the Cafe and Estate Agents in Victoria Road, Mortimer are being undertaken from the 19th of February 2024 with works scheduled to last four days. To undertake these works safely a short footway diversion will be in place around the works. There will also be two-way temporary traffic signals in place for the duration of the works.
Unfortunately, as with most highway related activities such as this, a certain level of disruption and noise is inevitable.
There is a meeting of the Burghfield & Mortimer Neighbourhood Action Group at the Community Centre, Mortimer, at 19.30pm on Wednesday, 14 February 2024. The agenda is here. (pdf opens in new window)

West Berkshire Council has responded to an intervention from the Secretary of State which blocked withdrawal of the Local Plan Review.
Last month the WBC had published a proposal to withdraw the Local Plan ahead of it going to Examination In Public. Before councillors could vote, the Minister of State for Housing, Planning and Building Safety, Lee Rowley MP wrote to the Council instructing that the examination continues as planned.
In 2022, Stratfield Mortimer Parish Council created a Community Grant Fund to provide financial support to charity, voluntary and non-commercial organisations running initiatives for the benefit of the parish and/or its inhabitants.
