PSPO Brackley Gate Consultation 2026

In February 2024, Erewash Borough Council made a Public Spaces Protection Order (PSPO) under the Anti-Social Behaviour Crime and Policing Act 2014. The Order restricts vehicle access along Brackley Gate, Morley through to Moor Lane, Little Eaton through the use of gates (whilst maintaining access for emergency services, land owners and those part of an authorised organisation).

This was as a result of reports of anti-social behaviour in the area, including the unauthorised vehicle use, on the lane and surrounding areas, and associated issues such as noise and fly tipping. The existing Order is due to expire in February 2027.

The Council is considering extending the Order for a further three years with the same conditions. All information on the existing Order and the proposed extension can be found at erewash.gov.uk/pspo.

This consultation is an opportunity for local residents and visitors to share their thoughts on whether the gates have stopped the behaviour previously experienced and whether there is public support for the Order to be extended.

Any additional questions or comments can be made to the Safer Communities team at Erewash Borough Council by:

- Emailing them on safercommunities@erewash.gov.uk

- Phoning them on 0115 907 2244

Please complete this survey before 23.59hrs on 6 December 2026.
