Parked vehicles causing a danger, 22nd April

Mon, 22 Apr 2024 15:04:20 +0100
51.892263 0.549033

As you come down Glebe Avenue most days there are vehicles parked half on the pavement and half on the road, they are parked on a bend and it is a danger to other road users as they have to drive into oncoming traffic to get round the bend (there is usually a recovery lorry parked on the pavement) this has been happening for over a year now and is steadily getting worse each week, sometimes there are 3 to 4 vehicles parked on the bend.

Disgraceful litter along A120, 26th March

Tue, 26 Mar 2024 21:38:57 +0000
51.88004 0.584578

Looks like a 3rd world country - litter dreadful around Marks farm area A120 but needs clearing up all the way along the A120 from Stansted to the Halsted Road. This will be a fire risk in the summer, and will attract rats. Why is this not picked up regularly like the rest of Europe? The more there is the more they will drop

It would be impossible to get a fire engine through this estate at many times, and with cars parked on bends it's impossible to spot oncoming cyclists, and so close to a school too.

The parking is ridiculous at John bunyan primary school. No emergency services would be able to get down there at school drop off/pick up times. Wardens dont do anything and no one listens to them. This is dangerous and I fear for my children.

Outside John Bunyan school every day there's double parking and parking on the pavement which is causing an issue to get to the school. Many times I've had to walk in the road due to cars being parked badly on the pavement and blocking me from walking on the pavement to and from the school.

Parking for school run, 17th January

Wed, 17 Jan 2024 18:21:35 +0000
51.885853 0.545706

Parking for school run, cars park on paths and block drop kirbs for people with pushchairs etc, they double park, drive faster the 20mph, hit parked cars, near misses with pedestrians and cars don’t let each other last so the road gets blocked. Many times I’ve informed the local mp for the area and all they do is up the parking warden visits but people don’t park like it when they are around as they arrive before school when it needs to be during the drop offs and pick ups. I’ve also suggested the road being one way to help with the congestion but it was ignored. I am a resident of the road as well as a parent and I’ve nearly been hit before as have my children, I have been shouted at and received verbal abuse for asking people to move so I can get my buggy down the drop kirb and cross the road safely and I am also a parent at the school. It’s just so dangerous!
