FIXMYSTREET IN BS5 9UB
The following problems have been reported on Fix My Street within 2 miles of BS5 9UB:
The drains are still blocked, 1st May
Opening a new report as https://www.fixmystreet.com/R/E2PYFWFaoEAYBsfn9Z was closed without action being taken.
There seems little point in soliciting reports of this nature if no action is going to be taken to resolve the problem but I'll try again...
The drains on both sides of the bridge are blocked leading to large puddles forming in wet weather. It leaves pedestrians having to run past to avoid an unwanted shower and it is dangerous for cyclists using the cycle lane.

Pavement is incredibly uneven, 1st May
The right hand side of Milton Park (as you walk up it - or where the even numbers are) is incredibly bumpy and dangerous, whenever it rains, there's massive puddles outside our houses, which we have to navigate. Its a hazard for residents with pushchairs and for young children who are likely to trip over. It has been this way for many years and needs addressing.

A dozen potholes over 100 yards, 1st May
Along Barton Hill Road from Fripp Close to Queen Ann Road there are at least a dozen significant pot holes. I've included a photo of the longest most severe one. There's another two you already have reported where Queen Ann Road meets Barton Hill Road, but these holes cover a long stretch of road - if you're coming to fix that one you may as well close the road and fix all of these at the same time. Really dangerous for cyclists and drivers alike who swerve to avoid them.

2 Lanes into 3, who has the middle lane?, 1st May
Hello,
I see a lot of near-misses or road rage being caused by this 2 lane road going into 3 lanes.
Just before the merge, Lane 1 has a left+straight arrow, making that lane correct for going into Lane 1 +2 off the main road. While Lane 2 of the minor road only has a straight on arrow, meaning its for Lane 3 of the major road. However, the average driver seems to ignore/misread the road markings and there's often a fight for the middle lane.
I think some dotted/dashed lines, like used on roundabouts would help prevent these near-misses and help the flow of traffic.

Giant Hogweed, 1st May
I saw this this morning growing out of base of wall on pavement. Person with bare legs could brush against it, causing nasty photosensitive rash. Someone I showed photo to asked 'Is it rhubarb?' No, it isn't, it is poisonous - its saps causes severe blisters by making skin photo sensitive. Don't touch it with bare hands.
