Severn Trent Water Work on Melton Road Stalls Progress, Resident Concerns Linger
Work by Severn Trent Water on Melton Road in Oakham, which is expected to conclude by January 30th, 2025, appears to be facing delays. The project, aimed at upgrading some of the local water infrastructure, has drawn criticism from some residents who feel the progress has been unnecessarily slow.
On a recent visit to the site, Oakham and Rutland News observed that no work was currently underway. This lack of activity has fuelled concerns among residents who are eager to see the disruption to their daily routines come to an end.
Melton Road is a crucial thoroughfare in Oakham, connecting the town centre to the Oakham High Street. The ongoing roadworks have caused significant traffic congestion and inconvenience for local businesses and commuters.
Residents are hoping for a swift resolution to the situation and a return to normalcy on Melton Road.
Yesterday residents filmed motorists ignoring the Road Closure and driving through on the pavement.
Oakham and Rutland News will continue to monitor the situation and provide updates as they become available.
