BRIDGE WORK AT POPLARS GREEN

Work is to be carried out on the bridge at Poplars Green. That's on the B1000, going from Hertford to Welwyn, just before the left turn to Panshangar Aerodrome. Two notices have been issued to local residents. The first advising that restoration work is to be carried out. The second stating that there will be a delay and lo and behold....the 3rd which arrived today states that this work has now been cancelled until further notice because of "LAST MINUTES PLANNING ISSUES" ! What kind of dumbos are the Highways Department employing that don't seem to be able to get planning permission in the correct order? The mind boggles....

Er, I think you may have misunderstood what they meant. I suspect they mean project planning, rather than planning permission. As far as I know, you don't need planning permission to repair bridges.
