At Daresbury is the World famous SRS Laboratory and in Moore you will find Moore Nature Reserve. These are just some of the many interesting places and organisations that we will feature at Moore-Online during the coming months. If you have any interesting items to contribute please contact me for inclusion on the website. Moore is not an isolated community but a part of the greater community and through this website other people will get to know more about 'Moore and it's Neighbours'.

*MOORE NEWS (w/e 23rd July 2010)* TRAFFIC CALMING The Council will shortly be circulating, to directly affected households, the proposals to reduce traffic speed and improve safety in the village. These proposals arise from the speed monitoring carried out last year, which showed a large number of vehicles speeding on Runcorn Road. It is only a matter of time before there is a serious accident. The proposals are for speed ‘Thumps’ from the ‘S’ bend to the Moore Lane end of the village. ‘Thumps’ are reduced height speed bumps, which slow the traffic but are not as uncomfortable to pass over as the traditional hump; they are currently in use outside Daresbury School. (Please don’t confuse them with the large humps, which are used in other areas of Daresbury). ‘Thumps’ will have a space between to allow the buses to pass unaffected and it is considered that they will slow traffic whilst avoiding the problems of the larger hump. The finish will match that used outside Daresbury School and is hence appropriate for a Conservation Area. Additionally, double white lines will extend from the ‘S’ bend to the Milner Institute to restrict parking in this area. The lines will stop at the Milner Institute to allow parking in front of the houses on the opposite side. At the other end of the Village the parking in front of houses at the junction with Moore Lane will be made safer by the creation of a ‘Pull In’ parking bay zone. The Parish Council have been in discussions with the Council on these matters for some time now and consider that the proposals are an appropriate solution to the speeding problem. Route 66 Bus: The bus is now running on Sunday's. It is understood that the first journey departs Moore at 09-45 arriving at Halton Lea 10-20; the last bus leaves Halton Lea at 17-05. Please do however check the timetable. The Sunday bus is an important service for the area but the bus company will only continue to operate it if it is used....as they say "Use it or lose it". Please... Please.. avoid parking in front of, or close to, the bus stops. Most of the buses passing through the village now have wheelchair access provision but this only works if the bus can reach the pavement. Dogs: The Parish Council have been receiving complaints about dog mess. They appreciate it is frustrating that financial constraints forced the removal of the dog bins but all dog owners are asked to clean up after their dogs. It is appreciated that the vast majority do clean up after their dogs and that it is the minority who are causing offence. Farmers Market: Walton Farmers Market is moving to Stockton Heath at the Scout Headquarters on Mill Lane (opposite St. Thomas School). The market will be open from 10am to 2pm, stalls will include: Meat, Cheese, Vegetables, Plants, Preserves, Eggs, Baking etc. The market will be held on the last Saturday of each month. For further details please ring 01925.860143 The next Market is on Saturday 29th May 2010. Change 4 Life Campaign: If you are aged 16 or younger or over 60 you can register for free swimming at any of Halton's 3 pools. This is part of the campaign to get the nation fitter. For details please contact or visit any of the pools. Recycling Centres: Summer Opening Hours The Household Recycling Centre at Picow Farm Road in Runcorn is now open 8am - 8pm. Bowling Green:The Rugby Club is looking for people interested in maintaining the Green and helping out. For further details please contact Jayne Jones (740627) Warrington Model Aero Club The club are looking to relocate to Moss Farm on the far side of the Nature Reserve. They currently operate from Sankey Bridges but are losing their site due to expansion by United Utilities. The Parish Council have concerns at the possible noise impact on the Village and particularly on residents of Promenade Park. Halton Model Aero Club currently fly in the area and the new club would result in additional model aircraft in the skies as the two clubs are too large to merge and operate safely from one site. Planning approval is needed from Warrington Borough Council and the Parish Council have written to both Warrington and Halton asking to be advised when the application is submitted so that we may comment. We will also keep the residents of Promenade Park updated. DO YOU HAVE ANY PHOTOGRAPHS OF THE HARVEST QUEEN? If so the Womens Institute would like to borrow them to complete a scrapbook they are making. Old or modern photographs are wanted.
