Mentor a Metre or Foster a Foot

Our previous concerns about the underpass off Bromborough Road beside Lever Bros offices have meant that we've been routing our Imby Patrol past here on a more regular basis. Our growing unease at the deterioration of this little stretch of public footpath seem well founded. Today we've filed a report with the appropriate department to notify them about the severely overgrown bushes and trees which are now causing serious obstruction to access on this thoroughfare. We love the attractive flora which cheers up this area - but it needs oversight and management!

The repeated monitoring visits we've made to this little area of Bebington have led to us deciding to make an Imby Challenge to the residents of Bebington. How about we each 'adopt' a very small area of our fine neighbourhood? We could each take responsibility for (i) litter clearing; (ii) reporting any necessary remedial works or improvements needed to the authorities; (iii) generally taking pride in 'our spot'; then how easy it would be to make sure Bebington shone. It will be easy to do - just pick 'your spot' and get started! We look forward to seeing you out and about and taking pride!

Imby Patrol Update - 13 August: We've just had an electronic mail communication from the relevant Authority Inspection Team. Their Inspection confirms the work required to clear the above obstruction. Instruction has been passed to their contracting cutting team. We'll let you know when this matter is fully resolved.
