Wokingham Borough Council is investing in more intensive surveying and maintenance of the borough's drainage network as increasingly volatile weather puts growing pressure on the system.
I’ve often lamented in these columns that politics is too short-term. Politicians, local as well as national, all too often prioritize the quick wins, which might deliver votes at the next election, rather than plan for the needs of future generations.

Wokingham Borough Council’s newsletters are read an incredible 6.15 million times a year. These updates span everything from ‘Moving Around The Borough’ - the weekly traffic and travel newsletter - to special updates for SEND families.
Twyford’s mainline railway station is a great asset. It offers fast services to London and will soon be the most used station in Wokingham borough. Unsurprisingly, it acts like a magnet for people from far and wide.
Cars are great. Drivers can travel when and where they want and access work and leisure in areas not served by public transport.
