Alleygating proposal for Tingley Crescent


Morley Borough Independent Councillors are working closely with residents in Tingley Crescent to explore the options to have a ginnel gated off with an alleygate.


The proposal follows concerns raised with MBI Councillors about high levels of anti-social behaviour and other criminal behaviour associated with use of the ginnel that leads through to Bradford Road.


The support from residents have been overwhelmingly positive and on a recent visit to the ginnel I saw for myself the high levels of destruction and graffiti that blighted this location. An alleygating scheme was successfully introduced into Siegen Close several years ago which has contributed to lower levels of anti-social behaviour and to residents feeling much safer and more secure.


We are taking to Council Officers about how we take the appropriate legal process to have the site gated off and we have identified the finance to support this project and we hope to introduce it as quickly as it is legally possible to do so.
