The county borough council said the decision came after a request from local ward members, who raised concerns about anti-social behaviour, prompted a consultation. A council spokesman said: “Working in partnership with local members and the Police we issued a notice for removal on February 1, providing residents 28 days to comment. “Following the consultation period, we can now confirm that the removal will go ahead. “Working with local members following concerns raised by the community we have taken the action requested, this sends a clear message that antisocial behaviour of any kind will not be tolerated.” Inspector Andrew Boucher of Gwent Police had previously said: “Proactive patrols are taking place after several reports of issues in this area of Blackwood, resulting in officers issuing fines and antisocial behaviour referrals for those involved.
