6” deep subsidence across road lane., 15th April
The road has sunk across the entire lane of the road, apparently above the route of a water main or some other underground pipe. It has sunk to a depth of 6” and is impossible to avoid when leaving Claresholm Close. It looks as if it has been noticed before, as dated yellow paint has marked it - but no repair has been completed.

Report on FixMyStreet
The grass verge on the left, at the junction of Braunston Road & Harrington Way was dug up - The Verge has not been returned to a satisfactory condition., 15th April
Post drainage/water work carried out after the flooding down Braunston Road earlier this year, a large portion of the grass verge on the left at the junction of Braunston Road & Harrington Way was dug up - The Verge has not been returned to anywhere near its previous flat and easy to mow state.
Infact, it is that bad, that when the verges were mown by Council Workers last week, only a small portion near the flower bed was mown. The rest was left - I guess due to grass verge being full of deep ruts & debris: bricks rocks etc (see attached pictures) - which would have damaged the mowing equipment....
These verges & flower beds at the entrance of Harrington Way, are tended regularly, to a high standard by residents of Harrington Way. I would like to think that the Council are able ensure this verge is returned to its previous flat, debris free, easy to mow & fully grassed state again. Thus not just making the entrance to Harrington Way, but also to Oakham, pleasing to the eye again.
