EAST RIDING: An energy company whose plans to build a wind farm in Spalding were rejected has made an appeal to be heard in summer.
Volkswind proposed to build a seven-turbine farm near Ivy House Farm in Spaldington last year.
But councillors threw out the plans after uproar from villagers who vowed to fight on should the company appeal.
A public inquiry is now set for May 24.
Plans and further details about the appeal can be seen at East Riding Council's service centres in Beverley and Howden.
HULL: Drivers have been warned of a week of disruption on the A63 between Daltry Street flyover and Garrison Road.

Drivers should follow diversion signs.
