Hello Residents;
Many of you will be aware there is a number of lockable gates installed at sites across Bolton. The gates were installed some years ago in response to repeated and persistent reports of crime and anti-social behaviour at the locations.
Powers to create PSPOs to allow gates to be installed over the highway to prevent and tackle crime and Anti-Social Behaviour came into force in October 2014. The Orders replaced existing Gating Orders sometimes called “alley gating” which automatically became PSPOs as of 20 October 2017.
PSPOs last for 3 years before they must be reviewed the current PSPO is now due for renewal. Bolton Council are now seeking to renew it for a further 3 years and are inviting feedback from the public and key stakeholders.
The sites included in the Breightmet areas are in the area of the following streets:-
Forton Avenue
Garstang Avenue
Greenroyd Avenue
Savick Avenue
Singleton Avenue
