Preserving Open Spaces
The Covid-19 pandemic has taught us the personal value of our local green areas and connecting with nature. Many of us are not privileged enough to have a garden and shared spaces such as parks, greens and recreation grounds have been even more crucial.
We will:
- Push for a regeneration of public spaces. This includes: protecting existing spaces, promoting natural corridors, and allowing open green spaces to be used for recreational purposes. Examples include outdoor gyms, play areas and sporting facilities which need to become more commonplace and accessible.
- Resist the encroachment of housing in our green spaces.
- Increase the planting of trees to tackle air pollution.
- Ensure public spaces remain open to all by being accessible, consulting with local disability groups.
Bromley Lib Dems are committed to preserving our green spaces and making Bromley cleaner, greener and fairer. Your Liberal Democrat voices on the council will help fight for these vital spaces.
