A329 overnight closure

There will be an overnight road closure in place on the A329(M) from Monday 3 June for 5 nights between 8pm and 6am in both directions.

During these times the A329(M) will be closed Bracknell bound from the Winnersh Triangle (showcase Cinema) junction to the M4/A329(M) On Slip, and Reading bound, between the A329(M)/ M4 Slip roads only.

This will mean that vehicles will not be able to travel along the A329(M) between Wokingham (Coppid Beach roundabout) and Winnersh in either direction. It also means that vehicles travelling towards Bracknell will not be able to join the M4 at junction 10.

These closures will enable Wokingham Borough Council contractors to undertake maintenance work in safety. During the same period, Highways England contractors will be working collaboratively with the council to also carry out their works associated with the delivery of the M4 SMART motorways project.

Thank you to outgoing Mayor Rahmouni

Woodley Town Council would like to express its thanks to outgoing Mayor Cllr Sam Rahmouni for all his support and hard work as Woodley Town Mayor.

Former Mayor Rahmouni’s chosen charity was the MS Society, Reading and Wokingham Districts. During his mayoral year, Cllr Rahmouni raised £1462.50 for the charity, including donations from Richard Lloyd Funeral Services and Barnes Fitness.

Richard Lloyd Funeral Services donated £100 to the Mayor’s charity when he attended the re-launch of its Woodley premises, while Barnes Fitness donated £1000 to the MS Society, Reading and Wokingham Districts in recognition of support from the Town Council and Mayor for the annual Woodley 10km and 2.5km races.

Woodley Town Council also thanks outgoing Deputy Mayor Cllr David Stares for his support.

The Town Mayor is the first citizen of the town and is elected to the post by fellow Councillors
at the Town Council’s annual meeting in May each year. The role of Mayor is a non-political
position and during the mayoral year, a Mayor puts aside council duties to concentrate on the
role as the town’s first citizen.

The Mayor chairs Council meetings and attends many functions within the town. These include
representing the Council at civic functions, receiving dignitaries, attending dinners, opening
events, talking to clubs and societies and visiting schools. The Mayor asks the Deputy Mayor
to stand in if he/she is not available.
