FIXMYSTREET IN DL14 9AD
The following problems have been reported on Fix My Street within 2 miles of DL14 9AD:
This through road is a public right of way, used daily by 100's vehicles and foot traffic, 9th March
As you can see in the photo's this road is in serious need of repair. It has lots of foot traffic everyday including pensioners, ladies with babies in pushchairs, school children, as well as huge 32 tonne bin lorries, delivery vehicles, cars etc... but the Durham County Council response to my concerns, (especially as the road has NO footpath) was as follows... " An investigation has been carried out and the road is NOT considered hazardous, dangerous, or in need of essential maintenance. I would say, they are turning a blind eye and as the photo's show it is desperately in need of repair.

House is shaking when busses go passed, 7th November
Every time a bus flies passed our house the house shakes, it’s causing some parts of the walls to develop small cracks, the worst being on the stairs. We bought this house last year and have realised it’s due to the busses passing at speed (usually) and shaking the house. We had the house replastered last year due to the walls being in such a state from the previous owners and they were perfectly fine but they’ve gradually formed cracks.
