Brilliant meeting at the town hall this evening regarding Trimley Rail Station, hosted and chaired by Jenny Riddell- carpenter MP, it was a full house with both Trimley parish councillors, District councillors for Trimley and Walton attending. Speakers came from all over the country to discuss how and if the building is able to be repaired and used again. It was extremely positive vibes and a working party will be formed and funding options looked into so things can get in to place before the railway network goes back into public ownership under the governments plan to nationalise it again.

Views are being sought to help shape draft proposals to enhance a stretch of Felixstowe seafront.

East Suffolk Council is inviting people to take part in developing plans to rejuvenate the South Seafront area between Felixstowe Pier and Landguard Point for residents and visitors throughout the year.

The Felixstowe Seafront Development Strategy builds on recent work to boost the vitality of the seafront through improved facilities, including the Sea You Café in Martello Park and the delivery of a new activity park and changing places toilets on the seafront.

Initial concepts have been designed by award-winning public realm architects, HAT Projects, reflecting informal consultation with local businesses, organisations and representatives.

Emerging short-term priorities include opportunities for improved lighting and wayfinding along the seafront, while a longer-term vision includes adaptations to the Edwardian gardens to create more usable and varied spaces, as well as redevelopment of space for events and outdoor activities, and potential streetscape amendments to boost connectivity and sustainability of seafront businesses.
