Welwyn Hatfield Week in Review looks back at the past seven days in our area, including our special access to Hatfield's One Town Centre development, opposition to Sadiq Khan's planned ULEZ expansion and much more.
Inside One Town Centre
We spoke to those involved in planning the project from Welwyn Hatfield Borough Council and those building it from Lovell Homes about the impact it could have on the town, with excitement building ahead of its planned summer completion.
The development has divided opinion amongst readers, with more than 6,300 of you clicking our story.

Arrest made over John Lewis ram raid
The story of the ram raid on Welwyn Garden City's John Lewis store captured the attention of readers last week, and there has now been a big development.
A 29-year-old man from Welwyn Garden City has been arrested on suspicion of three commercial burglaries, including the raid and the theft of the car used in it.
This was reported first by the Welwyn Hatfield Times after being confirmed by Herts police.

Grounds staff strike again
As teachers, train drivers and NHS continue to strike over pay, they will be joined by grounds maintence staff in Welwyn Hatfield.
Workers for Continental Landscapes, which holds Welwyn Hatfield Borough Council’s grounds maintenance contract, will strike for five days beginning on Monday, January 30, and then a further five days from Monday, February 6.
"It is entirely unacceptable that the employer thinks it can get away with paying poverty rates of pay," said Unite general secretary Sharon Graham.
Sadiq Khan's ULEZ expansion woes
Mayor of London Sadiq Khan is looking to expand the ULEZ into Barnet, but not everyone is so keen.
"There are other parts of the borough which will be severely impacted by the ULEZ, but they have public transport connections," said Potters Bar councillor Paul Hodgson-Jones.
"In Potters Bar, we lost our public transport connection."
