Turning circle at end of Rock Lane LU7 2QQ, 27th April
This depression is getting worse. During rain it fills up with water and does not drain away. It only evaporates. Young children use this as their paddling pool. It has been in existence for over 20 years and I have reported it , with photographs, many times. Potholes have been filled recently further down the road. This end of the road has been overlooked.

A418 from Wing toward roundabout with A4146, 25th April

Wing Road, 25th April
The whole road is full of potholes. They grow bigger and deeper by the day. Very dangerous, I just blow off my whole tire as I drove into it with my front left tire! Please fix this ASAP, the mechanic told me I am lucky to drive a good car as if I was driving a smaller car I could have lost the whole wheel and cause an accident!

Along a 60mph A road, 24th April
Incredibly dangerous pot hole. Traffic needs to pull into oncoming traffic to avoid. This destroyed the tracking on my car and I needed two new wheels. Absolutely appalling that it continually gets filled and within a week is a huge problem again. Sort it out before it kills someone!

Outside no.9, 23rd April
Last Tuesday evening (16th April) a lady fell whilst crossing the road due to poor lighting and bad weather conditions. She was unable to see and caught her foot in the pothole, then subsequently tripped on the exposed curb, thinking she had put her foot on the pavement.
The lighting is particularly poor around this area with long distances between lampposts and where there is light, it is confined with no spread, meaning it is near on impossible to see in-between them.
We had been to an evening event at the Salvation army and were crossing the road to the car park. A stretch with no lighting, where you are unable to see the pavement, road or curbs in normal weather, add rain and it was only a matter of time before an accident occurred.
This is a busy area with people using it as a cut through to the town and Hamiliton Court located just along the road.
As well as fixing the several potholes and paving issues, this road is in desperate need of additional lighting, particularly along this stretch.

Resident Permit Zone, 22nd April
Our block of flats have been excluded from being able to get a resident permit for the Resident Permit Zone on our road. There is a small parking area for 3 cars on our driveway but there are 4 flats. The other residents of Bedford street have garages and driveways and they are able to get resident permits for the road. Please can this permit allocation be reviewed to allow all residents the same access.
Also their is no signage for the permit resident area on the arm of our road which mean there is now visible notice of the restrictions.

Top of king street odd number side near the Stag Pub, 21st April
I know this gets sent to another department but on numerous occasions I’ve been told this is getting sorted, well the householder is obviously oblivious to being told . The hedge of his garden is overlapping the pavement by at least a third and now it’s almost impossible to get past with a buggy or wheelchair, can someone please get onto this household to trim back “ALL” of the hedging not just the bit he’s seems to think is adequate,
