Streets in Optical Illusion! Massive Partying & Drug Use Shut Down Areas in Fair Oak

Streets in Optical Illusion! Massive Partying & Drug Use Shut Down Areas in Fair Oak.

Public access to lanes leading through a cluster of Preston streets are to be blocked off as they have become a hotbed for drinking and drug taking.

preston-city-council>Preston City Council’s Cabinet has given the go-ahead for a Public Space Protection Order (PSPO) to restrict the right-of-way along the ginnels at Balcarres Road, Shelley Road, Blackpool Road, and Briggs Road in the Cadley Ward. The move will allow the authority to install crossings at four sites for which planning permission was granted earlier this year. This followed an informal consultation with householders who overwhelmingly supported the measure.

In fact, it was the residents themselves who first requested the alleys in the area shortly before the pandemic broke out. They were concerned about noise nuisance from young people and some local workers loitering, littering, and drinking alcohol.

A memo to cabinet members said residents of the affected homes were “reluctant” to report the problems to the police at the time. While this restraint remains to some extent, several incidents have now been reported to the police – and they reveal that the problems have worsened in the five years since they were first brought to the attention of local authorities.

The problems residents have had to put up with include people smoking weed, drinking alcohol, leaving behind empty cans and – sometimes broken – bottles, urinating, littering, shouting – and even breaking into their sheds. Incidents not directly related to the alleys were also reported, including eggs being thrown at windows, front doors being slammed, and thefts from vehicles.

The proposed PSPO was consulted on by the Chief Constable of Lancashire Police, the Office of the Police and Crime Commissioner for Lancashire, and Lancashire County Council – in its capacity as the Roads Authority – and no objections were raised to the plans. A six-week public consultation was also held.

Residents and businesses in the immediate vicinity will be given keys to access the newly closed spaces – as will police, fire, municipal authorities, and others who need them to carry out legal duties.

The gates are already in place on other routes in the area, having been installed as far back as 2012. These are just some of the more than 120 lanes that exist in Preston. New consultations must take place every three years to keep PSPOs in force.

Preston carried out a three-year review of all its lanes last year – and once again residents backed their retention. However, some concerns were raised about the maintenance of the lanes themselves, which the city council promised to remedy.
