Traveller update

All but one of the caravans had gone from the park by 1:30pm today and police were monitoring the remaining one. BCC and Quadron have started the clean up process. Please be aware that some of the waste represents a clinical health hazard. BCC are aware and are prioritising its removal. They think it will take 3 days to put the park back to something like its normal condition. The play area and outdoor gym have both been attended to.

BCC are proposing to increase the security of the park near the scout hut and at the main gate over the next few days.

The travellers have moved to Selly Park Recreation Ground near to St Mary's hospice. BCC and Police are aware of that and are taking steps to move them on again.
