Cllr Deane commented that the Middlegate Road West junction with A16 is not wide enough for a bus route, coming from Kirton the visibility is very poor when tuning left.

Cllr Burton commented that there was a rise in fly tipping in Frampton, Boston Borough Council Fly Swat team should be congratulated on the speed in which it is cleared.
