Accessible entrance – construction to start 30th September

by

Construction of the new ramp to provide an accessible entrance at the front of the Hall is expected to start on 30th September.  Work is expected to last 6-7 weeks, to allow for construction of the ramp and then installation of safety fencing and handrails.  The image above gives an idea of how the ramp will look, although the railings will be different to those shown.

The site will be fenced and a compound put in place at the front of the Hall. Work will only be carried out during daylight hours. We have asked our builders to do as much as they can to minimise any disruption to our neighbours and the wider community.

We would ask everyone to please bear with us during the construction process. Our builders know they need to be aware of the impact of the work on our neighbours, hall users and other members of the community, and we hope that any short term problems can be resolved with them on site.

We are looking forward to revealing our new entrance ramp soon – and ticking off the most requested item from our five year plan survey!

Accessible Entrance Update

by

Work is progressing towards the installation of an accessible entrance at the front of the Village Hall.  Hall users identified this as the improvement that they would most like to see made to the Village Hall, and it features strongly in our five year plan.  We have now submitted plans for a ramp at the front of the Hall to Bromsgrove District Council for planning consent.  You can view a copy of the current plans by clicking on this link: AVH Entrance Ramp Plans.  We hope to receive planning permission soon, which will allow us to proceed with an application for Lottery funding to enable the works to go ahead, possibly in 2019.
