Andy Martin, BCP Council’s cabinet member for culture, communications and customer, said: “Installation is now complete and the remaining temporary fencing will begin to be removed next week, with some low-level fencing staying in place for a short time to allow newly seeded meadow grass to establish.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
