Works Van left on cul de sac for weeks, 16th February

Fri, 16 Feb 2024 17:57:27 +0000
52.775921 -1.561031

There is a property been refurbished across the cul de sac. It has been going on for quite some time. One of the contractors keeps leaving his Citroen van parked in the small cul de sac. It presently has been there since Christmas. I don't understand why. There are very few spaces and the cul de sac is very small. There are families that live here and they can't park close to their properties which if they could, it would be safer. I myself have a granddaughter who is 6 and I collect her from school once a week. This contractor does not live nearby. I have spoken to this guy previously about leaving it here and he said he would soon be moving it, but all he does it moves it to a different spot.

Broken gbotyles, beer cans, energy drinks, no street lighting, 14th January

Sun, 14 Jan 2024 13:09:50 +0000
52.766231 -1.541828

The whole road, especially where the roundabouts are a mess of litter and broken glass over the pavement areas. It's obviously being used by people for drinking purposes. Pedestrians and dog walkers are struggling to walk down the footpaths with broken glass everywhere. The streetlights do not work so it is pitch black at nighttime. A reason it's becoming a place for anti social behaviour.

Double parking near junction makes using road and pavement extremely difficult, 12th December

Tue, 12 Dec 2023 15:55:09 +0000
52.763977 -1.562069

The junction between School Street and Regent Street regularly has either the Ford Focus or the Toyota Avensis double parking close to the junction/on the junction and completely blocking the pavement in the evening and overnight. This has been ongoing for months and is usually always these 2 vehicles. When on foot you cannot walk on the pavement and have to go into the road, and when travelling by car it is extremely difficult to safely turn on to Regent Street from School Street when driving a van or large car. The cars also obstruct visibility of traffic on the junction and makes the area extremely dangerous to use.

Litter in all areas, 15th October

Sun, 15 Oct 2023 07:51:55 +0100
52.772459 -1.562761

The green spaces surrounding the cut through footpath down to Sainsburys are full of litter. They are also very overgrown. I believe the land belongs to Sainsburys but it would be good if the authorities could force Sainsburys to clean up the area. Much of the litter is plastic gloves from their petrol station area.
