Residents in the Arkleston Estate have raised ongoing concerns about parking pressures within Housing Department–owned car parks. Many of these car parks are currently unlined, leading to inefficient use of space, blocked access, and avoidable neighbour disputes.

This project would fund the lining and marking of parking bays across identified Housing-owned car parks in Arkleston. The aim is to maximise the number of usable spaces, improve safety and access, and make parking fairer and clearer for residents.

This is a one-off improvement that would deliver a long-term benefit to tenants without creating ongoing costs.

18 Achray Drive currently have wheelie bins (6x grey, 6x blue, 6x green) which are kept at the side of the building. 16 Achray Drive have an allocated bin area with bulk waste bins. This is a much better practice and the bins are better kept at 16. If we could recreate this for 18 it would take the bins away from the building and tidy up the bin area. This would require slabbing part of the grass area at the front and moving the existing metal fencing. 

Remove the weeds and litter and replant existing flower beds, particularly the raised beds, and maintain them throughout the year.  Going forward, if maintenance is a burden, set up a local group of volunteers who would be willing to maintain the flower beds, in a similar vein to TUTCU.
