Every few months the Holyrood Ward ‘PACT’ meeeting (Police and Communities Together) helps the local police set priorities for their work.

Last time they agreed to two priorities, and have now given us an update:

Parking issues near Parrenthorn High School – We have been in the area and advised motorists on their method of parking. We have worked in partnership with Bury Council’s Civil Enforcement Officers who have also been in the area. This will be an ongoing situation which is still being monitored by ourselves and Bury Council.

Passing attention to Grosvenor Villas – We had been giving the area passing attention. We were also on hand when the hostel closed down, this was to prevent any potential Breach of the Peace by residents who had been evicted from the premises due to the closing down of the site.

Going forward the following two priorities have been agreed:

Continued parking issues at Parrenthorn high school/St Margarets primary school and surrounding streets.

Parking issues at Prestwich Arts College and along Heys Road.
