There are a number of recurring issues for the Parkland Walk. Rarely is there a simple answer. Ultimately solutions often rely on balance and common sense. These links will guide you through our views on some frequently raised topics and hopefully provide you with some satisfactory answers.
- Encroachment – land theft, fly tipping, environmental damage through garden waste and damage to habitats by personalised gate access from gardens
- Biodiversity & Climate Change – striking the right balance (it’s not all about trees)
- Control and maintenance of trees on boundaries
- Planning – on site and adjoining properties can have major implications for the quality of the nature reserve and the chances of providing good conditions for invertebrates, birds and mammals
- Mobility Access – entrances and paths
- Litter – more bins or no bins?
- Seating
- Signage

- Conflict between users – walkers, cyclists and runners
