Parking concerns, 19th October
I live in Dunholm Close Houghton Le Spring and there is a lack of consideration from parents dropping children off at St Michaels school. Since the path changes in the area (widening of the path for bikes) the congestion in the local area is terrible with parents now doing the following:
- Parents driving clearly above the speed limit in a residential area. They often speed up Dunholm close to use the cul de sac as a turning point and then parked at the bottom of the street to drop off children at the school. -Parents parking on dropped curbs -Parents parking on double yellow lines -Parents parking outside residents drives -Parents parking in the side streets and blocking the flow of traffic down the street to the point no cars could get past. - Parking fully on the pavement to avoid double yellow lines
As parent of young children living on the street it worries me that parents dropping off children are not respectful of the speed limit or residents of the area. This violation of safety really concerns me.
Is there a plan in place to sort out this type of issue (I’ve seen traffic patrols infrequently monitoring this area but feel more needs to be done.) I’m aware that other residents have also escalated concerns to the local authorities. I have also tried speaking to the school with no avail except for them to tell me to call the police.

Red barrier fencing has not been removed after fixing of a wall, 5th October
I reported an unstable wall between kirknewton close and kirkstone close, to Sunderland council at beginning of the year. I had notification to say this was going to be fixed. In around May workmen came and removed the unstable bricks, put the red barrier fencing around it. They returned a few weeks later, fixed the wall but left the plastic fencing. (Even though it was the same men who put it there). I reported the fact that they had left the barriers, which were lying in the street by now. I have reported this to Sunderland council between June and July approx 5 times. They looked on the system and saw it was the highway agency's responsibility and would send an email. I phoned up before the summer holidays as knew it would end up in someone's garden. Nobody has been to collect it as of yet. I called Sunderland council last Friday and was told another email would be sent. However, 5 to 6 months after the wall has been fixed, the plastic barrier is still lying in the street and looks a total eyesore. When I went to fill in the details about the barriers on the highway agency, it redirects me to here as it says this is not their responsibility. Could somebody please come and remove it!!! I don't mind who, I just know that it has now been here for months. Thank you

Hello, Someone has erected yellow bollards across a public parking bay on a public road. This is denying everyone else access, other residents, visitors and delivery drivers. Also they have damaged the block paving. Can we get these removed please so everyone can use this public parking bay. Surely this is illegal. Thankyou.
