- Alley gating guide
(PDF 398KB)
The alley gating guide contains a great deal of information about the effects that gating can have on communities. It discusses how local residents can go about putting a scheme into effect.
The guide even contains a sample letter that can be used by prospective scheme leaders to consult with other residents on their estate.
The leaflet includes sections on:
- gate design and locks
- the cost of purchasing and installing the chosen gates
- planning permission and public rights of way - the gate may form part of a footpath, in which case agreement must be made with the Highways Authority to de-adopt the path
- providing access to council workers and the emergency services; and
- a suggested timetable for residents planning to install gates on their estate.
