Please find attached the Notice of Intent for the temporary bridleway closure of Bridleway LA8/67/10.

Please find attached the final order for the temporary closure of Roads in pill for the Pill and district Charity Rag 7^th June 2026.

 

Please find attached the latest information about our work in Portishead.

We will soon need to temporarily close the footpaths over the railway that lead from Tansy Lane and Moor Lane. Please see the attached document for further details.

Pill and Easton-in-Gordano Parish Council currently has six vacancies for parish councillors. The council has fifteen seats in total. The current number of councillors mean that it is getting more difficult to represent all of the needs of the community.

We urgently need suitably qualified people to step forward and apply to become parish councillors.  This is a voluntary role, but it is a very rewarding one, as councillors have a direct impact on the quality of life for all people who live and work in the parish.

The main qualifications to be a councillor are:

• To be at least 18 years of age.
• Either live in the parish (or within three miles of the parish boundary), have their main place of employment in the parish or to own land or property in the parish.

As a councillor you will help gather data and make decisions on things such as:

• Improving access to play, recreation and sporting facilities.
• Transport matters (including the railway).
• How housing will change the parish.

If you care about the quality of life in the parish where you live or work, then please consider joining our committed and dedicated team of councillors.  For further information please contact the Parish Clerk by emailing clerk@peig-pc.gov.uk

Please see the attached update regarding the latest stage of the work to rebuild the Portishead to Bristol railway,

We’re about to begin our next stage of work along the disused line from Portishead to Sheepway. We need to remove the old railway and prepare the area for new track to be installed. This will take place from Tuesday 5 May until August 2026. We’ll be working Monday to Friday between 7.30am and 5.30pm.

Please find the attached letter with full details.
