About the project
PROJECT TITLE: Hinds Lane Greenway
LOCATION: Bury
FUNDING: Awarded £16,016 in Round Five of the Greater Manchester Green Spaces Fund
DELIVERED BY: Little Britain Anglers
The idea
The project will enhance nature and biodiversity in the area by improving access along an overgrown but well used cycleway and walking route linking Bury through to Radcliffe along the river Irwell corridor and the Manchester Bolton Bury Canal.
The group will tackle invasive non-native plants such as giant hogweed and scatter wildflower seeds, place bird and bat boxes, clear paths and remove Water Soldiers from the canal to improve wildlife habitats and provide a green corridor for nature.
