Public spaces- safety

enhancement to the public realm Alleyway below Hamara Garthe Alley way is currently being used as a public latrine and drug use and rubbish dump that promotes vermin infestation and does not promote health and social inclusion.

The smell is atrocious and does not promote safety to the square, which also needs a green uplift. The Alley way itself could be a great way to reconnect Rochester Avenue to green street as a pedestrian connection. by proposing an uplift to the Alley way below Hamara Gar, it would deter the shops from leaving the commercial bins, people using it as a public toilet and others using it for drug use . the back of the shops also call for an uplift perhaps fresh beautiful coloured paints that enhances it visually.

some timber decking step could be introduced to deal with the level change the walls cleaned to take on some art works or light display that could also be connected with soothing sounds promoting a soothing space. an idea similar to the barbican road tunnel but brighter to deter antisocial behaviour. could this space be a new skateboard park? It has a long passageway at the back of the shops that currently also encourages a lot of fly-tipping during late nights . Bringing an element of play?
