Belfast council announced a raft of alley gates but demand remains high
Belfast City Council is demanding the Stormont Justice Minister “step up to the plate” and combat antisocial behaviour by equalling the local authority’s spending on neighbourhood alley gates.
“It will help people feel safer in their homes and encourage more of the transformation we saw particularly during the pandemic, to revitalise and reimagine the space behind people’s homes. “The council has committed £500,000 and significant officer time, but I think the Department of Justice needs to step up to the mark and support this work.”
There will be a statutory consultation process lasting around three months relating to the council announcement, with the full legislative process lasting from six to nine months. Each gate costs around £2,500.
