Neighbours come together for a protest march... against broken street lights

Lowestoft Journal writes...For two years parts of the A47 in Lowestoft has been plunged into darkness.

Broken street lights have not been fixed by National Highways - despite numerous reports being raised by locals.

Now to highlight the issues a protest march of around one-and-a-half miles is set to take place in the coastal town.

A group of locals said the ongoing situation had become so bad that it was now "an accident waiting to happen."

The launch of the highly exciting and innovative SlowWays project has unforunately been postponed, because of Tier 4 restrictions and now the National Lockdown 3 as well as for our general health and safety. More information to follow. 

"We had planned to launch in the last week of January 2021, but due to the current situation with Covid-19 are delaying until conditions improve. We will post here as soon as we have a new launch date." SlowWays website

Most Easterly is already planning 2021's BIG LUNCH. Big Lunch is a nationwide event for the weekend of 5/6th June 2021. It's a simple idea. People make food, bring it along to the Triangle Sails. People eat, meet, and talk. It's open to everyone. We all get to know our neighbours, and make new friends (not guaranteed, of course). So Most Easterly has booked the Sails for Saturday 6th June. All we need now are tables, chairs, decorations, and food. Use our contact form to get in touch.

Welcome to the Scores Trail. This booklet has been designed to help you understand a little more of Lowestoft history and of the significance of these ancient pathways leading down to the sea. You can find your way around the trial by reading the map in the attached Ledford leaflet or by following the red herring way markers. Lowestoft was originally built on top of the cliffs overlooking the North Sea. The schools that run down these clips were ways to access from the high ground to the beach area. Added: 23 September, 2023

(Darren has ideas on this!) I love Ness Point but I am in minority because I am a nerd and just wax lyrical about all the maths I could do with kids down there - most people don’t appreciate this so I will stop there… but I still want to promote it. Again, another contention because previous MP (BB) did not want to promote ‘Lowestoft: The Most Easterly Town’ nor ‘Ness Point - Britain’s most easterly point’ (Land’s End? S+W John O’Groats? N so why not E?).
