Report on FixMyStreet
Deep pothole on the left side of the road shortly after the Ixworth Road / Pakenham Road crossroads as you are driving towards Ixworth, 17th September
Not sure how long the pot hole has been here but it’s visible on Googlemaps which indicates it’s been there for a while. We were driving back at night from visiting family in Thurston and didn’t see the pothole until it was too late and it has damage my front left wheel. Didn’t stop to take a photo but it must be bad to cause such damage (we’ve been over potholes before that didn’t cause any damage).

4 off 40x40cm holes /dips in road, 13th July
The road out side 83 Barton Rd is starting to collapse once again! The tarmac was previously patched about 4 years ago but never investigated what caused it!! The road is once again dipping between two sewer manholes covers so its obviously a pipe that's collapsed its getting very dangerous for cyclists!

Reduced visibility, 13th July
Due to hedges protruding out, the view of vehicles approaching when using the junction from the Livermere direction. Means that you cannot see approaching traffic unless you drive forward so that the car bonnet is sticking out into the road. This obstruction is in both directions. At times the traffic is exceeding the speed limit.

Street sign in wrong place, 13th April
This was erected a few months ago but faces in one direction giving the impression that Heather Close is down that road only. It either needs moving or an additional sign needs to be placed further along the green to show that Heather Close is in both directions. It is very unclear as to where Heather Close is and this needs to be rectified.
