Blocked drains on eastern end of viaduct., 24th October

Sat, 24 Oct 2020 15:22:07 +0100
51.021947 -4.235097

Both sides of the road on the viaduct at the eastern end the drains are blocked causing water to flood out into the road at quite a depth causing a real hazard to traffic. This situation has been apparent for a very long time and it is time the issue was dealt with. It is quite noticable that many roadside drain covers are blocked by grass growing from the verges.

Inconsiderate and potential illegal parking., 24th September

Thu, 24 Sep 2020 05:35:28 +0100
51.020359 -4.226333

Totally inconsiderate and potential Illegal parking in cul-de-sac causing considerable damage to verges and kerbs, obstruction to service vehicles and potential damage to telecom and water utilities. This is compounded by commercial vehicles, trailers with industrial plant and goods loaded, vehicles with SORN’S against them and at times no MOT’s. This along with the council in all the years I have lived hear never maintaining the verges or road way (the residents can only do so much) which due to the heavy use is starting to deteriorate rapidly. This has been brought to the councils attention many times
