Addressing Safety Concerns at Pool Bank Street Car Park
A well-known car park on the outskirts of Nuneaton town centre is set to undergo potential changes aimed at improving safety and reducing anti-social behaviour. The Pool Bank Street Car Park has long been associated with a range of issues, including drug-related activities, robberies, and dangerous driving practices such as performing donuts and wheelies. These problems have led to growing concerns among local residents, who report that the area continues to be affected by antisocial behaviour, speeding vehicles, vandalism, and drug use, particularly during the evenings.
The decline in usage of the car park has become a significant issue, with many people avoiding it due to fears of crime and unsafe conditions. In response, Nuneaton and Bedworth Borough Council is considering measures to make the area feel more secure and welcoming for the community.

Community Impact and Challenges
According to a council cabinet report, the car park is located near the town centre and adjacent to the Pool Bank recreation ground. This makes it an important space for various community organisations that use the area, especially during evenings and weekends. However, the presence of ongoing safety challenges, such as antisocial behaviour and serious violence, has led to the underuse of the recreation ground. Residents and local groups have expressed concerns about the fear of crime and high-profile incidents that have historically occurred in the area.
The proposed solution involves consulting with those who live and work in the vicinity, as well as community organisations, to explore ways to improve security. One of the key ideas under consideration is the installation of additional gates at the car park. Currently, there is one set of gates, but the council believes more could help manage access and reduce incidents.
Proposed Measures and Next Steps
The council’s report outlines plans for a consultation process to gather feedback from the local community and relevant stakeholders. The goal is to address the concerns raised by residents and ensure that the car park remains accessible for legitimate use while deterring antisocial activities.
The additional gates would allow the area to be secured when not in use, while still providing flexibility for local organisations to access the space when needed. This approach aims to strike a balance between safety and functionality.

Cabinet members are now being asked to approve the consultation process. Once this step is completed, a follow-up report will be prepared based on the outcomes. This report will include detailed options and recommendations for moving forward.
Upcoming Meeting and Community Engagement
The council’s cabinet meeting is scheduled for Wednesday, July 16, at the Town Hall. This meeting will provide an opportunity for members to review the proposals and decide on the next course of action. The outcome of the consultation will play a crucial role in shaping the final plan for the car park.
By engaging with the local community and addressing the concerns raised, the council hopes to create a safer environment that encourages the use of public spaces and fosters a sense of security among residents. The proposed changes reflect a commitment to tackling long-standing issues and ensuring that the area remains a valuable asset for the community.
