Many of you will have seen the recent works taking place between Bushey Station and Grover Road. This started with the removal of trees on the bank. Unfortunately, as this is private property, the council was unable to prevent this.
However, the removal of the trees and heavy rainfall resulted in safety concerns. Network Rail therefore undertook the initial work which involved building up the bank. GFL, who run the site, have since built a retaining wall to support the bank.
This structure will require retrospective planning permission. The council’s enforcement officers have visited the site several times and continue to monitor the situation very carefully. An Environmental Health team are also investigating complaints from nearby homes of lights shining into their properties.
