Fed up residents of both Rugby Avenue & Cheltenham Avenue, Accrington, have had there complaints listened too and resolved by their local Labour team. Late last year several residents commented on how areas of both the Laneside area streets where being continually parked on. Causing both a hazard to pedestrians and damaging the paving stones on both these streets. Working together both Lancashire County Councillor,Clare Pritchard, and Borough Councillor Paul Cox worked towards placing these bollards which will restrict access to vehicles but still allow safe use of the footpath.
Cllr Pritchard said " these residents had tried unsuccessful to have these bollards placed here and quite frankly had given up hope, but when my fellow ward representative Cllr Cox spoke with them and informed me of the issues I acted to have something done and keep the pathways as clear as possible.
Cllr Cox added " This again just shows how when we are told of a problem we attempt to solve it and also in doing so help improve a great part of the ward, several residents have since thanked us for taking on board the problem and working to resolve it"
