A PUBLIC meeting to tackle anti-social behaviour in Whitefield is to be held at St Michael's Church community hall in Ribble Drive.
Residents complained to Whitefield and Unsworth area board that much of the nuisance and vandalism was caused by young people using Grayson Avenue to reach Thatch Leach Lane open space.
The council and its partners are now considering closing that entrance, and the meeting will give local people their chance to have their say, either for or against.
Councillor Joan Grimshaw, area board chairman, said: "I am pleased that residents are working with the council and police to address these problems.
"Anti-social behaviour may be regarded as low level crime but it can blight an area. I urge residents to attend this meeting."
The meeting will be held on Tuesday, starting at 7pm.
