It needs resurfacing, pot holes filling. Please complete this asap. It has become a rat run with a very heavy flow of traffic especially when the A12 is at a standstill.

Unsafe pavement surface, 29th November
This pavement which runs in front of 17-21 Blackbrook Road has had NO maintenance for decades. It is now crumbling, has huge cracks, is covered in moss and has virtually no surface left. It's in an atrocious state. Repairs to sections of other pavements on Blackbrook Road were carried out last week (w/c 20/11/23) which were in nowhere near as bad a state as this path. What needs to be done to raise a priority repair on this path?
