Need for a BID @ Altham

Consultations with Altham businesses were undertaken as part of the ‘Green Business Park’ initiative. This identified security as a major concern and a key priority which could be addressed cost effectively by businesses working in partnership. Lancashire Police helicopter

Some improvements have led to a reduction in reported crime but crime is still a problem on the estate.

Additionally there is a concern that criminal activity has been dispersed to neighbouring business parks and could return if the momentum against criminal activity is not maintained.

There is also a fear of the impact of crime in disrupting production, increasing insurance premiums and subsequently on the bottom line. Wider issues reported by businesses include fly tipping and dangerous driving.

This proposal has taken into account all the results of consultations and feedback from previous initiatives to provide a cost effective additional level of security.
