Some comprehensive estate regeneration schemes based on needs and priorities identified through consultation for individual areas. Schemes generally include improvements or renewal to parking provision, property curtilages, rear gullies and alley-ways, lighting, amenity areas footpaths carriageways and courtyards.
Smaller one-off improvements in response to specific issues, such as fire actions, gulley improvements, alley-gating, parking, courtyards or footways.
Alley Gating are ongoing 2-year programmes to investigate and secure rear lanes by the means of manually operated gates. Programmes are agreed every 2 years and include lanes identified as the highest priorities for the Council, in terms of the levels of anti-social behaviour, crime and environmental issues. All schemes are subject to support from the local community and consideration of any representations during the legal process. The programme aims to deliver approximately 20 gated schemes with approx. 25 – 45 gate installations per year.
Fire actions are typically the relocation of an existing bin-store sited too close to the main building. Repositioned in a new location a set distance away to prevent fire spread to the main building. The works are usually a new brick built bin store, set on a concrete slab, steel railings and a secure steel lockable gate. Enabling works may also include, concrete paths, slabs, drainage etc
A rolling programme of courtyard improvements has been developed specifically tackling issues around security, improved amenity space for tenants, improved bin storage, surfacing and access. The programme is based on prioritising the courtyards in worst condition first and it is anticipated undertaking around 20 courtyard improvements every year depending upon capacity.
Defensible space improvements to flats are also planned this will include Railings and gates, pathway renewal and where possible level access ramp to front communal door.
