A STEEP, winding Keighley street targeted by volunteer cleaners is to receive further attention, this time from Community Payback workers.

A section of Thwaites Brown Road, known as The Twines, was cleared by residents who filled 40 sacks with vegetation and rubbish.

Keighley town councillor Michael Westerman said he had since been in touch with Bradford Council and was told that the Community Payback team would begin additional cleaning and cutting back of undergrowth along The Twines, from Tuesday, April 2. The job is expected to take four to six weeks and that The Twines will be closed from 10am to 3pm on Tuesdays and Thursdays during this period. There will still be access for pedestrians and residents’ vehicle access.
