Fence Improvements on Bowland Road

Written by Community Gateway | Monday 26 January 2026

During a pop-up event on Bowland Road, our Engagement and Communities Officers spotted that many fences along the street were in poor condition.Tenants raised their concerns too, explaining that several fences had badly deteriorated, so they not only looked unsightly, but also posed a health and safety risk.

Taking this feedback on board, the Engagement and Communities team teamed up with the Investment team and arranged for contractors, DM Fencing, to step in and replace the worst-affected fences. 

The improvement work has already made a visible difference, enhancing the overall appearance of Bowland Road and helping to create a safer, more pleasant environment for everyone living there.


This project is a great example of how we listen to our tenants and work in partnership to improve their communities.
