Bollo Bridge Road closed in both directions.

Police tape has been used to cordon off a section of BBR at the bottom of Brouncker Road (near Sunninghill court).No (visible) police in attendance, but a council van has since put up cones and boards, blocking the road completely in both directions.Suggest avoiding this tomorrow morning....

electric car charging point

I recently bought and electric car. There is a government scheme that partly funds on-street charging points but Ealing Council doesn't seem to be interested in installing one in Acton. Are there any more electric car owners in Acton? It may be easier to get it approved if we apply as a group. thanks!

Permanent piles of rubbish at bottom of Goldsmith Road

Hi, I've tried reporting the rubbish which is almost permanently piled up to the rear of Nara's on Goldsmith Road but the complaint form on the Ealing website tells me it's "Due To Be Cleansed Tomorrow" which it never is. I've been photographing it (like a mad man) to prove that it's never removed but I don't think the complaints get anywhere beyond the automated response. Does anybody know who in the council I can contact directly about this?Thanks, Dan.
