Tactile paving ineffective, 23rd April

Tue, 23 Apr 2024 00:04:31 +0100
50.712226 -2.468941

Tactile paving throughout Poundbury seems to have been fitted with aesthetics taking precedence over usefulness. Although I am not certain about recommended installation, the diagonal cuts and placement and lack of right angles seem to risk visually impaired people walking into the road at a dangerous angle. Although I have selected this location, this seems to be the issue throughout Poundbury, especially in these "square junctions", and this is a good example, also easily seen in Google street view and feel it is worth checking.

Working on behalf of SGN, i have a gas pressure governor to replace in April 2024 at the rear of 11 Buckingham Way, Dorchester.

50.70346 -2.427885

The tree canopy that is alive behind out homes needs trimming because of satellite signal issues, the dead trees need removing that are directly behind our homes because they’re very untidy & encroaching into our gardens, & thirdly there has been lots of fly tipping over the years which is disgusting from previous tenants directly behind the fencing and sheds.
