Wakefield Council - Fence off Gorton Street Park!

To Wakefield Council

With reference to the planned Regeneration improvements to Gorton Street Park in Kinsley WF9, we, the residents of Kinsley ask you to please fence off the entire field on Gorton Street, not just the area currently used as a rugby pitch. We ask that the park area be left in its existing position, but with more play equipment than is currently available.

The area to which Wakefield Council is proposing to move the playpark is right next to a road where illegal car racing takes place. Its existing location is at least at a point where the racing cars are forced to slow down in order to turn onto another road.

If moving the park is unavoidable, then the entire green area absolutely needs to be fenced off to avoid accidents happening in the future.

This is the only green space left in Kinsley and it needs to be kept open for the community
