Work on Spital Hill and Ellesmere Green was the main talking point at the Burngreave Tenants’ and Residents’ Association second AGM in November.
After presentations by the Council on the road changes and proposed new artwork, residents raised concerns about the impact of road closure on local businesses. Councillor Ibrar Hussain responded, saying they had explored all other options and had no choice but to go ahead with the temporary road closure. The loss of the public toilets on Ellesmere Green was also raised, which had resulted in the bus stop becoming an informal public toilet. Public toilets are now only available at Sorby House and Tesco.
The TARA went on to tell people about all the activities they had supported or organised during the year, including regular trips to the seaside, the youth club at Verdon Recreation Centre, Computer Drop-in at the Vestry Hall and a health project at Verdon Street along with a sewing class. In December the TARA will be organising a Christmas Fayre.
