Road cleaning - Thistlewood Lane, Wolsingham, 2nd March
This road hasn’t been fully swept since resurfacing over two years ago! The road edges are now not clearly defined due to rotten leaves and debris and are a health and safety issue for pedestrians and dog walkers when having to move to the side/edge of the road to accommodate passing vehicles. Only a 30m area near the bridge appears to get attention but the remainder of the lane is neglected/ ignored by the mechanical sweeper.
