Beechwood park barrier

After a phone call from a Holmfield resident, complaining about parking at the Beechwood drive/Grange avenue side of the park, the safer cleaner greener dept decided to look at re-opening the barrier to the car park. Everyone who lives around this area will know what problems we, as local residents, had in the past, when the car park was open 24/7. Speeding cars, drug dealing, threats of violence to dog walkers and many other sorts of Anti Social Behaviour. For the last 3 years since we got the barrier erected, local folks and their childrens lives have been much happier and safer. Myself and Jane Shooter, handed in a petition last Friday to Calderdale council, which was signed by every single resident on Beechwood drive and Grange avenue, that answered their doors. The council has now made it clear that the barrier will remain locked at all times, unless there is a activity going on that needs extra car parking, i believe this is a commensense approach, and thanks to everyone who signed the petition.
