A group of travellers has moved onto public open space in Blackpool – sparking concerns from nearby residents

.

The travellers moved onto land off Fleetwood Road, near Wingate Avenue, on the morning of Wednesday May 3. It is believed they had relocated after enforcement action forced them to move on from King George’s Playing Fields in Thornton. John Blackledge, director of community and environmental services at Blackpool Council, said: “We have been made aware of 10 vehicles that have parked up on land off Fleetwood Road. Our enforcement officers have visited the site alongside with the police. We are now taking the necessary steps to formally instruct the occupiers to vacant the land.

Julie Sloman, who is a Conservative candidate in Norbreck ward, said a number of residents had contacted her with concerns about the travellers group. Other candidates standing in the ward are Maxine Callow – Independent; Emma Ellison – Conservative; Robert Harrison – Labour; David O’Hara – Labour and Tony Williams – Independent.
