Parking across our dropped curb, 10th April
We have had people continuously parking across our dropped curb and our driveway. I have spoken to some and most don't care and are very rude.
We need access all the time due to child care needs, not to mention it is our land they block.

Really noisy drain cover opposite 50 combs lane., 14th March
Combs lane is a very busy road and this drain cover has become very rattley or loose. Every car that drives over it,it make such a loud clatter. I can hear it in every room in my house and when out in the back garden. At busy times it’s every few seconds,it’s driving us mad,especially at night,keeping us awake. Please can someone look at it. It’s on the left side,heading towards The Ford. Between Edgecombe Rd and Jubilee Avenue. Almost opposite no.50.

Blocked drain - flooding, 3rd March

Traffic Signals phases wrongly, 8th February
Traffic light phasing out excess time allowed along gipping way but not enough time along station road east/station road west resulting in traffic frequently backing up along tavern street and Finborough road.
This has been ongoing additionally there is no intelligence or linking between these lights and those at Milton road south gipping way meaning lots of stops start and increasing delays
