Bus shelter safety concerns at Hesleden

Following concerns expressed by residents in Hesleden about the safety of children climbing onto the roof of the bus shelter opposite the chapel in Front Street, we have been in touch with the transport department at the council to ask for a re-located fixed waste bin and a redesigned curved top bus shelter. 

It is hoped that together these two changes will help to prevent children climbing onto the bus shelter and placing themselves at risk of falling through the roof.

We would like to offer our thanks to the Hesleden Voice Facebook page for drawing this matter to our attention.
