Dangerous pothole, 21st February
Very deep pothole, previously reported but still not fixed. This pothole is causing dangerous avoidance tactics at this busy roundabout where the lanes also merge right in the exit. Industrial estate traffic pours onto this roundabout, merging at the same time as avoiding the hole is very dangerous. Pothole is deep enough to cause serious damage to vehicles.

Footpath with slippery mud, 20th December
Last night I slipped on mud on the path between Mayfield Drive and Bramley Road. My shoulder slammed into the fence. Luckily no real injuries but it could have been worse. My three year old son slipped over here a few weeks ago. According to the OS map this is a public right of way and is regularly used by local residents. It would be good to see the whole of this path resurfaced not just half of it. Thank you.

The old lights were efficient. the new lights are inefficient., 21st September
With the lovely new T junction [with closed cycle lane crossing still incomplete 2 months after workers left it]
We now have the lights on timer control. not sensor control like the old lights had.
I thought we were sold that being sensor controlled meant that they are more efficient for both keeping vehicles moving e.g. if no vehicles waiting, then that junction is red and it will be green for a junction that has vehicles waiting. instead of timer and causing traffic to stop or be waiting and watching an empty junction with a green light.
Instead the inefficiencies mean vehicles idling for 2-3 minutes engines running [not all have auto start-stop] and queues generated due to having watch an empty lane on a daily basis have a green light.
Fundamentally, an upgrade for cyclists. but a downgrade for vehicles and the environment with more queues and idling engines.

Bad diversion being ignored, 15th September
The new diversion and closure signs don't work. Closure signs being missed and satnav (waze) gives a quicker diversion through quiet residential roads. Cars and huge lorries are still getting as far as the pure drop Inn and turning around in their car park. Please look again at the signs and diversion route.

General state of roundabout, 8th September
Canford Bottom roundabout is a complete mess and has been ever since is was constructed. Surely some trees could be planted and some wild flowers to make it more attractive. What visitors must think I can’t imagine as it must be the worse looking roundabout in the south.
