PARISH PLAN 2026
We are looking for people to offer up a small amount of their time who, over the
next nine months or so, can apply their sense of vision and enquiring nature to
help put together a new Parish Plan for Litton Cheney. It comes down to what
residents of Litton Cheney would like their village to become over the next ten to
twenty years, and what needs to be put in place in order for that to happen.
The first thing we need to do is put together a steering group of independent
minds – it will work outside of the Parish Council - who will put together an
initial village survey asking residents to indicate their thoughts and hopes. This
is not another shot at deciding if more housing is required in Litton and of what
type, although it will have a part to play.
Please, take a look at the 2005 Parish Plan, here, which hopefully will give you a
clearer picture of what needs to be achieved.
If you believe this is something you can assist with, please contact a member of
the Parish Council (details here). Without your involvement, this is going
nowhere. It’s time to stand up and make a difference.
WHITEWAY WEIGHT LIMIT - NO HGV’s
Whiteway now has a weight limit meaning that any vehicle weighing above 7.5
tonne cannot use it. Signs have been installed on the A35 and at the top and
bottom of Whiteway. For this to work effectively, if you see a large vehicle
transiting Whiteway (refuse lorries and tractors excluded) please note its
registration, the time, and report it to 101 or a member of the Parish Council
(contact details on village website and village notice boards).
If this is the work, it will require all of us to be vigilant and if we do witness an
incursion, to take down the vehicle's registration (photo would be good) and
report it. The link to reporting it to the police is shown below - thank you.
