We have reinstated the majority of our working area in Fordbridge Park and Woodthorpe Gardens. There is still some fencing in place both areas. This is to protect the reinstated vegetation, to ensure they fully recover and grow. It is important that we reinstate vegetation in the most appropriate season to allow the best conditions for the vegetation to survive and grow. We will return in the next available season to complete the final sections of reinstatement in Fordbridge Park and Woodthorpe Gardens. We will also remove the fencing once the areas have sufficiently recovered. We are committed to 5 years of aftercare for the reinstated vegetation.
