Park improvement hits second phase

A PROJECT to improve a park has entered its second phase which will help to increase biodiversity while also making the park more accessible to the community.

- 

Initial improvements to the boundary and entrances of Bullough Park in Accrington have been completed and the project has now entered its second phase.

A new path has been constructed to link Miller Fold Avenue with the existing park network, improving access into Bullough Park and down into Woodnook Vale.

Two new sets of steps have also been installed to make it easier for visitors to explore the park.

Contractors from the Lancashire Wildlife Trust have been on site with large earth-moving machinery to create a series of small wetland scrapes and a brand-new pond.

These features are designed to attract and support wildlife, contributing to the park's biodiversity.
