That's all folks, the L,O,A alleyway clean up has now been completed .

All the waste generated from the cleanup is now in the skip ready to be removed on Monday.

Any large items that are left in area 4 are in the hands of Oldham council fly tipping team to remove as these were report as a flytipp before the clean up commenced, which is still under investigation.

All bramble piles that have been created in areas 4 & 5 , will decay naturally.

In regards to the over growing trees in areas 1 & 5, this is in the hands of Metrolink , who have said they will investigate and take action as possible.

All area have now be cut to a reasonable standard , allowing access, for residents, through all the gates.

It is now up to the residents to maintain the area.

Thank you to the resident that came and helped, it was very much appreciated.
