We welcome the completion of the Hospice and the Respite Care Centre in Goscote Lane but we need restoration of a full bus service to serve Goscote Lane.
There is a real possibility that at least we are back on track to rebuild and regenerate the area around Goscote and Poets Corner which will go forward with full consultation with residents.
At last Walsall Housing Group and the Council are cleaning up the area and putting in cameras. We will insist this continues.
We are leading on regulating the scrap metal business and are pursuing our idea to introduce in Walsall a scheme that will force all scrap metal wagons to display a licence as on taxis and so could withdraw the licence if they do not obey the law.
Action is continuing to persuade and compel horse owners to put their horses onto designated sites out of Blakenall and well away from the public and pay for that permission… or face stiff fines.
News in North Walsall
Sites such as the ones Mill Street are now built on . Gradually we moving forward to persuade the private owners of these sites in North Street and Brewer Street ( where the Mary Elliot school stood) to also develop these areas .
We shall continue to campaign to clear up the alleyways and footpath just off Proffit Street , close the tunnel under the road and start the approved fill in of the old railway cutting. We also need a friends group in Cannon Street North to join with us to look after that valuable and potentially attractive open space.
Buildings that have attracted anti-social behaviour have gone such as the flats in Cannon Street North . .
We are working on lots of issues with residents such as closure of some alleyways, clearing tipped rubbish and working with our excellent new beat Officer Sergeant Jim Nixon, to hit hard all those who break the law, especially those involved in drug dealing.
Surgeries every Thursday 12 noon to 1pm at Ryecroft Resource Centre Ryecroft Place.
Do come along for a chat or ring us for a home visit.
