APPLICANTS behind plans to increase the size of a phone pole in Penketh have been told work cannot take place on Sundays or bank holidays.

Proposals have been submitted to replace the current 11.8 metre pole with a 15 metre pole on Warrington Road in Penketh.

But developers have been warned work should only take place 8am to 6pm Monday to Friday and 8.30am to 1.30pm on Sundays as ‘noisy or disruptive work carried on outside of these hours are much more likely to raise objections’.
