π§**Demolition Plans Face Setback in Splott!**ποΈ

Big changes are coming to Walker Road, Splott, but not without a few hurdles! The former Salvation Army building, once bustling with community spirit, is set to be demolished to pave the way for affordable housing. However, Cardiff Council is hitting pause, asking for a detailed noise management plan before giving the green light! π€

Local residents have expressed concerns about noise and vibrations. In response, the council insists on a thorough plan to minimise any disruption. They’re keen on making sure the area remains as peaceful as possible during the process. β¨

The Cardiff Community Housing Association is behind this new proposal. They assure locals that other community facilities are nearby, including another Salvation Army centre just a short walk away on East Moors Road. So, it seems like the community spirit will carry on! π«πΎπ
Looking back, the building has quite a history! Once a police station in the 70s, it later became a hub for various religious and community activities. But as they say, onwards and upwards!
The considerate demolition plan proposes work hours from 8:00 to 17:30 on weekdays, ensuring minimal disruption during rush hours. π¦
The good news? The old New Fleurs nightclub site is set to provide parking and a βlayoverβ area during the works β planning ahead!
