Earlier this week I wrote on this site about safety concerns expressed by residents at the Scheme Houses in Blackhall (see post dated 5 November 2012). These related to the faulty lighting and overgrown bushes and trees at the steps which lead to the main road at the bottom of the Scheme Houses.
Given the safety aspect of these complaints I urged the relevant departments at county hall to tackle these issues as a matter of urgency and I'm pleased to confirm that the lighting has now been fully restored.
I visited the area earlier this morning to check on progress and I can also confirm that maintenance workers were on site cutting back the overgrowth and trees to make the lighting more effective and thereby improve safety for residents using this access path.
