Travellers back on car park near Black Country Living Museum
Travellers have moved on to a car park near Black Country Living Museum – just weeks after camping on two separate sites in Dudley.
More than five caravans are camped on the site on Tipton Road, where it is believed they have been there for more than a week.
It comes after two separate incidents were reported last month, where more than 40 caravans moved on to the car park at the Showcase Cinema complex at Castlegate, before being forced off and re-locating to Dudley Leisure Centre.
Councillor Khurshid Ahmed said the council are working together with the police to resolve the issue.
He said: "I believe these travellers have been camped up on the Tipton Road car park site for more than a week now, and we are working with the police and Black Country Living Museum to get them moved off.
"A possession oder was process last Wednesday, where they had until Friday to leave.
"Today (MON) we will be going to court to order bailiffs, recovery trucks, dog wardens and police to move them off.
"We are working towards putting plans in motion to stop these issues arising in the future."
