Cropton Park changing facilities

John Fareham and John Abbott report that the Wyke Rugby League Club have left Cropton Park for about a year and are using temporary facilities at Kelvin Hall School while their new changing rooms are built. Obviously this is of interest to local residents as it means they are getting a year’s respite from overspill parking while the works are going on. We’ve noticed the level of parking at first hand – it’s one of the places we’ve used over the years to break for meals during election campaigns – and we thought you ought to know about it. We take the view that the state of the tarmac where parents park while their children play rugby is something that needs to be addressed and we will continue to press for action on that point.
