Wayne Hoban, Lib Dem councillor for Alexandra ward, has succeeding in securing a site meeting with council officers to examine options for upgrading the site known as the ‘Triangle’ situated at the junction of Palace Gates Road and Crescent Road.

Following a local survey he conducted last year which showed that many residents consider the site to be an eyesore, graffiti stained, and generally uncared-for, Cllr Hoban has been urging the council to take action to improve the site.

Cllr Hoban commented:

“I am pleased that the council have at last responded to my call for action. This site has been neglected for far too long. Local residents continue to send a clear message that they both want and expect action.”
