Video Update ~ St Patrick’s day

Stonebridge Park Nottingham. UK

The new road now being constructed in Lytton Close will be completed at the end of March, the contractor WATES will then begin environmental improvements to the front & back gardens of Eastham Close and some Lytton Close homes by Installing new iron railings, wooden fences, off road parking areas and external wall cladding to residents homes.

An application for planning permission to carry out similar work to houses in Dennet Close and Lytton Close (proper) has now been submitted to Nottingham City Council.

With just 13 weeks to completion of Phase 1a & 1b, work has begun on the back yards of the houses in Eastham Close, and the roof is now ready to be put in place on the big Peverel apartment block at the junction of Blue Bell Hill Rise Road & Dennet Close Road.

Beginning in April a series of coffee mornings will be held at Stonebridge City Farm as part of the consultation process. Local residents will be able to come along and have a chat to Project Manager Sharon Brookes and WATES who will be carrying out the work.

It is anticipated that Martin Harris will also be at the coffee mornings to begin local consultations regarding Rocket Park.

Martin Harris of Nottingham City Council Parks Department gave an update to the recent SPTRA meeting. He said that his Department wanted to work with SPTRA and local residents to complete Rocket Park by installing new play equipment. He also wanted to make the estate more colourful by sowing wild flowers, poppies & bulb planting on the vacant areas where the old flats have been demolished. He then described some of the problems involved with cultivation, and said that while the NCC Parks Department do not have funding for Plants & shrubs for Stonebridge now; he thought that this can be over-come later on.
