Uneven road surface outside church entrance, 3rd December
Outside the church there is a road and a sharp bend - as the road surface on the corner is very uneven it means that traffic effectively has to travel on a single track road on a sharp bend.
Is it possible for the corner to be evened out to make it safer when approaching on coming traffic? Especially in the dark it’s difficult to navigate this road.
Buses and lorry’s actually use this route so think it would be great to make it more even

Manhole cover collapsed at edge of road, 22nd March
The cover of a large service hatch at the edge of the road has fallen in. A car driving over it would put one wheel down the hole. This road gets heavy traffic as used for a cut through by drivers avoiding traffic lights at Frating Green therefore drivers often need to pass each other. The side of the road shows evidence of heavy use, and now the hole. It is dangerous. Has been there for several days, marked with two cones but if they get moved people won't see it until it is too late.

Flooding, 12th March
At the bottom of the hill when it rains heavy the road into Arlesford floods and the water is deep. This road is divided by solid white lines forcing people to cross these solid lines to avoid the water. It is unlit at night and is a national limit. The amount of water forces people to serve but if they hit the car will loose control and a crash is highly likely. This is dangerous.
