Traffic calming Measures Earith Road – Have your say

The Council are hoping to introduce some give-way traffic calming on Earith Road, near the orchard. 

If the project goes ahead, it would be using S106 monies ringfenced for specific highways issues.

We would like some specific yes/no feed back on the idea. Please let the council office know by the 25th September whether you would support the idea or not.

Comments can be emailed to: clerk@willinghamparishcouncil.gov.uk or popped through the letter box of the office, located at the Ploughman Hall, West Fen Road.

E-Cops – Don’t let burglars ruin your holiday

Don’t let burglars ruin your holiday
We are asking people to consider home security ahead of a peak in holidays over the summer months.

According to research 77 percent of adults are planning a summer holiday meaning there is likely to be an increase in unoccupied properties in the county. While we are seeing a 19 percent reduction in burglary this year (Jan – June 2025) compared to the previous year, opportunist thieves can use the holiday season to their advantage. So we’re asking people to think about home security if they are planning on going away.

There are several steps people can take to protect their homes, particularly with the support of friends, family and neighbours. Whether that be asking someone to move the bins, park on your drive or using timers on lights – there are lots of measures people can take to make their home look ‘lived in’ while they are away. We have dedicated teams who are working hard to combat burglary and bring thieves to justice. Tackling it is a force priority as we aim to make Cambridgeshire an even safer place to live.

If you are going away consider:
·  Maintain a normal routine while you are away by asking a family member, friend or neighbour if they can:
·  Put the bins out
·  Open and close blinds/curtains as you would normally
·  Remove post and parcels that are delivered
·  Make your home look lived in:
·  Use smart bulbs or timers to switch lights on and off
·  Use the timer function to turn you TV on and off
·  If you have a smart device such as an Alexa set it to play music at certain times in the day.
·  Review your security:
·  Consider installing an alarm, outside light with a sensor
·  Consider installing CCTV/doorbell camera
·  Ensure all outbuildings and sheds are locked

Further information about holiday burglary advice is available on the force website – Going away? Don’t give it away | Cambridgeshire Constabulary   

E-Cops – Door to Door Sellers

Message Type Icon The Police
Door-to-door sellers operating in the area
We’ve had reports of door-to-door sellers visiting homes in the area. They are often nicknamed ‘Nottingham Knockers’ and involve people claiming to have recently been released from prison and selling goods to help them raise funds and mend their ways. However, this is not part of any officially-recognised offender rehabilitation programme.

Residents are being urged to remain cautious and report any suspicious behaviour to police. If a crime is taking place call 999 otherwise report online or call 101.
