UNUSUAL BRIGG APPLICATION MADE TO THE COUNCIL

Wrapped around a post in Spring's Parade, Brigg, outside the Steel Rooms, is an unusual North Lincolnshire Council public notice. It refers to an application being made for authorisation to place an obstruction on, or over, the highway. There is reference to tables and chairs and it quotes the Highways Act 1980. It's interesting to note reference to the highway which, to the layman without legal training, translates as road. And this area is supposed to be traffic free - a pedestrian zone.
Having examined this public notice we thought we'd make the short walk to the County Bridge and view the small print on the application about listed building consent being sought for the proposed new pipe, mentioned in a lengthy Brigg Blog post a few days ago. However, we couldn't find one.
