Notice from Cornwall Council:
New legal requirement for businesses to show QR codes for NHS COVID-19 app from 24 September.

You may have seen already that the Government has announced that certain businesses and community venues will be legally required to enforce the rule of 6 and to collect contact details from customers and retain them for a period of 21 days. Those failing to do so could face prosecution. You’ll find the Government’s announcement from this morning here.
Businesses and community venues will also be required to display QR codes for the new NHS Covid-19 app at their premises by next Thursday, 24 September. Displaying the QR codes will make it easier for customers and visitors with smartphones to check-in safely and securely to a premises by scanning the code.

This new rule will apply to all the following sectors, including settings run by local authorities:
• hospitality, including pubs, bars, restaurants and cafés
• tourism and leisure, including gyms, swimming pools, hotels, museums, cinemas, zoos and theme parks
• close contact services, including hairdressers
• facilities provided by local authorities, including town halls and civic centres (for events), libraries and children’s centres
• places of worship
• community organisations with a physical location that is open to the public
To meet the new legal requirement, the Government is asking all such businesses and organisations to download the QR codes to display as a poster at entrances by 24 September and they have provided materials to help create a poster.

More tips on creating and displaying the poster are here.

We are sharing this information as widely as we can through our business and community networks and it would help us greatly for you to share this information through your own networks too.

As we get further updates we will send them to you.

Please be advised that Wadebridge Skatepark will be closed to the public on Friday 18th September 2020 between 9am-12pm due to a promotional event.

Access will be monitored by Town Council Staff and only permitted once the event is over.

Apologies for any inconvenience caused.

 



The Town Council has reluctantly taken the decision to cancel this year's New Year's Eve Fireworks.  This is 
due to the continuing issues with regards to Covid-19 and ongoing restrictions of social distancing, which will, according to the latest advice and information on mass gatherings, not be reviewed until November 2020 at the earliest.

We are disappointed in having to take this decision but the safety of our community is paramount.

Fireworks for New Year's Eve 2021 have been booked and we look forward to our wonderful town welcoming in 2022 in the usual way.


NOTICE FROM CORMAC

"As part of our planned highway maintenance activity we will be surface dressing the A389 between Dunmere, Bodmin & the B3266 junction Wednesday 26th August.

We know that the road network in this area is normally very busy, especially during the summer season. However, the very nature of the work means that we can only carry out these activities at this time of year in warm weather conditions. Unfortunately, the recent variable weather conditions & high humidity has meant our previous attempts have been delayed.

If the weather is favourable, we will carry out our operation between 6am – 8am, and the resume after 9:30am if necessary.

The works will be undertaken under ‘Stop and Go’ with a convoy vehicle to control the speed of passing traffic.

We know this will impact the local community and we want to assure you that we will do all that we can to minimise the disruption, but we do anticipate some delays for road users.

If you haven’t already received a copy, attached is our surface dressing fact sheet which explains a little bit more about these operations.

We would like to take this opportunity to thank you for your patience while these works are taking place.
