Bilborough’s Big Spring Clean!
big spring clean
*Held on 25 May, the young people of Strelley taught us older ones a big lesson! A massive big thanks to all the services who work tirelessly to make our streets clean. In particular, to the pupils and teaching staff from Djanogly Strelley Academy who came out and really made a great difference. *

*A final thought. It would be rather nice if people respected their community and didn’t drop litter in the first place. *

tree planting
Tree planting on Melbury Road
Parks and Open Spaces worked hard together with local volunteers on 18th & 19th March to replace the trees at the top of Melbury Road which had to be removed due to disease.
If you would like volunteer for any future schemes and want to find out how to get involved, please email:

Bilborough’s Programme for Street Improvement
We have just agreed a £630,700 programme for improving some of the pavements and roads in Bilborough. This is money which is ring fenced for highway work and cannot be spent on anything else.
It sounds a lot but given the amount of work needed it is a drop in the ocean, nevertheless welcome. All work is done according to a technical assessment.
Some of the roads on the list are Bracebridge Drive, Burnside Green, Melbury Road, St Martin’s Road and Stagsden Crescent. We are also setting money aside for tree work and public bin replacement.
