In the past two years, Surrey County Council has imposed deep cuts in the local fire and rescue service - downgrading fire stations and decommissioning engines. Amazing how it can now find £55,000 to spend on Pride rainbow crossings. #Priorities getsurrey.co.uk/news/surrey-ne…
"A spokesperson for Surrey County Council said: 'We will be installing a crossing in each district/borough [of which there are 11] in the county. The approximate cost is £5,000 per crossing including design, materials and traffic management...'" getsurrey.co.uk/news/surrey-ne…
Earlier this year, a person died in a 3.00am fire in Banstead, Surrey. The local fire station had been closed overnight due to cutbacks. surreycomet.co.uk/news/19184921.…
