3 Huge Potholes on Valley Bridge, Chelmsford, 9th April
1 side of the bridge has a massive pothole that you have swerve onto & over the central lines of the road to avoid & in the exact same place on the other side of the road are 2 potholes that you also have to drive on or over the central lines to avoid. These potholes have been there for ages and there will be a head on crash if these are not repaired as a matter of urgency. Disgrace that they have not been repaired without me needing to complain.

Grid fitted improperly, 8th March
There is a grid on the road that is loosely fitted and every time a car drives over it it makes a loud banging noise, this is a guys road and therefore the noise is persistent through to the night.

Dangerously sunken SW drain cover on verge of collapse, 3rd March
This issue was reported to Highways Essex back on 23rd Nov. '23 and despite their website stating "We've investigated and assessed this issue. We've made it safe and we'll assess it again to find out if it needs permanent repair in the future" and "A defect has been identified, the issue will be programmed for repair according to how we prioritise highway issues" - nothing has been done to make it safe. Problem 'A' is that this road (despite having a 40mph limit) is frequented by traffic regularly exceeding 60mph, which often swerves into traffic from the other direction to avoid this hazard; it's an accident waiting to happen. Problem 'B' is that every vehicle which drives over this SW drain cover causes an almighty metallic crash, keeping residents awake all night. Problem 'C' is that lorries collecting aggregate from the nearby 'Bulls Lodge Quarry' drive over this cover, resulting in houses shaking. Again, keeping us awake at night. Highways have a legal obligation under Section 41 of the Highways Act 1980 to maintain the highway in “such a state of repair as to be passable in safety at all season of the year”, which is clearly is not currently possible to do. Normal intervention levels for potholes is >20mm deep and 150mm long/wide. This is 40+ mm in depth and is so across the entire floor area of the SW drain cover.
