"Just a positive Newsflash that ISG applied to extend the working hours from 7.30am to 9pm Monday to Saturday but this was refused by the Islington and the City Planning Departments. So people were right to be worried, but the right answer has been…"

You may be aware that last week the government announced that it was allowing construction work to continue until 9.00pm weekdays and all day Saturdays.I have managed to secure the following statement form the City of London Corporation.We understand residents’ concerns on the impact of the Secretary of State for the Ministry of Housing, Robert Jenrick’s, statement advising local planning authorities to review applications from contractors for an extension to site working hours. The City…See More

Mark Bostock commented on Sue Pearson's blog post ALDERMAN LUDER JUSTIFIES WORK ON COLPAI DURING LOCKDOWN
"The City had an opportunity of showing real moral leadership by delaying the COLPAI construction work during this difficult period of lockdown.  It has failed to do so.  It is clear that families confined to their flats with their children…"

"I wonder where Alderman Luder is living during lockdown? Not, I suspect, within 6m of a building site that continues to work noisily for upwards of 8 hours a day. Perhaps he would like to swap with me (if that was allowed) to experience first hand…"

William Pimlott commented on Sue Pearson's blog post ALDERMAN LUDER JUSTIFIES WORK ON COLPAI DURING LOCKDOWN
