Local Priorities

Lower Valley Ward Areas : Brighouse, Hipperholme and Lightcliffe, Northowram, Greetland and Stainland, Elland and Rastrick. 

  1. Anti-Social Behaviour - Elland
    We will do this through a partnership approach to increased awareness of anti-social behaviour reporting methods, identify repeat victims and perpetrators of anti-social behaviour, and educate young people of the impact of ASB. We will adopt a problem-solving approach to locations/victims and perpetrators of ASB to prevent escalation and repeat. We will work with housing providers and support services to ensure all appropriate safeguarding and support is in place.  
     
  2. Road safety across the Lower Valley with a particular focus in Hipperholme and Lightcliffe
    We will do this through targeted Road Safety work deployments, working with partners to inform & educate communities and enforce road safety legislation. This will include SID and Pro-Laser deployments, and proactive work to identify and prosecute unsafe use of the road network.
     
  3. Responding to community concerns about HGV impact from Quarries on local road
    We will do this through a partnership approach, working with the community Safety Partnership, Planning and enforcement teams to ensure roads around local quarries are safe for pedestrian and vehicle use.
