    Recently there was long thread about the BCA. I can now post possible answers to some of the questions, such as "Why is the BCA still raising membership prices when there is a significant amount still left in its coffers?"

Daytime Road Closures Horton-in-Ribblesdale to Ribblehead

Residents have received the attached information about night and daytime road closures.

The main one to point out is from just north of Horton-in-Ribblesdale to Ribblehead as this is a daytime closure from 7.30 am to 5.00 pm. The dates projected are from Monday 13th June for 7 days but this could change.

I have put the full details on here  http://bit.ly/1Pj0IFl

The signs up have been misleading a lot of the time with the road from Helwith Bridge to Horton saying closed between 19.00 and midnight on Friday went there was no work being done. 

Be Warned that the road up to Ribblehead is getting closed, at least at times, and it is therefore very unpredicatable. One friend has been unable to get home after work this lunchtime due to the road being closed near his house.

I was up there yesterday, road closed at Ribblehead, but they were very pleasant about allowing me through to access  the Salt Lake Cottages road. I guess there will be times when you can't get through, but it seems to be worth asking. Roadworks and closures scheduled for the rest of this week.

6th june was for the works from settle-horton, the closure from horton to ribblehead was scheduled for a week from 13th, so yes, still closed today.

Luckily I arrived before 7 and left after midnight but it did not look like they did much.

The road closures last week were for during the day so the road was due to be open by 5.00 pm. The week before was just evenings.

Latest update as far as we know from talking to the workmen is that it is complete now. They have just done repairs and do not intend to resurface until next year. That was the story on Thursday morning.

I was up there on Monday - all clear.

The minor road on the other side of the river below Langcliffe has closures on it, but I didn't pay attention to details.
