On path, 23rd April
Two drainage gullys were repaired yesterday after they were filled with tar. They are already broken and collapsing. Metal grate was found in road. Both metal parts over hang in to road and are very sharp. Just right to damage a car tyre. Also. Work men came from Kent!!!!!! Plant a few more trees. That will off set the environment damage.

Urgent Safety Hazard - Large Rock obstructing access on Council Land, 21st April
I am writing to notify you of a significant safety hazard on the road under your jurisdiction. A large rock, potentially having fallen from a passing lorry, is on the corner of a junction on council land, creating a serious obstruction that is putting road users at risk of accident and injury.
This hazardous object on the public highway is extremely concerning, as it poses a particular danger to larger vehicles such as vans, trucks, and emergency services trying to access the road. These larger vehicles may not be able to safely navigate around the rock, leading to the potential for collisions, or causing an accident on the road.
The council may be held liable should any such incidents or collisions occur as a result of this dangerous obstruction. Failing to address this known safety issue could expose the council to significant litigation should someone or their property be harmed, especially given the heightened risk to larger commercial and public service vehicles.
I urge the council to send a crew to remove the rock immediately. The safety of all road users, including those operating heavy goods vehicles and emergency response units, must be the top priority.

Dear colleagues I would like to report the missing weight limit sign on Western Avenue Buckingham which should be 7 1/2 tons and has been similarly removed and not replaced, 21st April
Dear colleagues, I would like to report the missing weight sign on Western Avenue on the Morton Road end. It would appear through discussions with people today in the football club that the sign was removed as it had fallen over and never replaced which I would believe is an oversight, there is a high weight restriction 7 1/2 tons the lorries on this stretch road unfortunately because the sign is no longer there I’m being advised that people are using it for large vehicles over and above the weight restriction. I would kindly ask at this sign is replaced at your earliest opportunity as you will know this estate is full of young families and with many elderly residents and competing with heavy goods vehicles is not acceptable and once you replaced the sign I hope things will return back to normal. I look forward to your response and update on when this is going to be replaced., And I thank you in advance for your prompt action in these matters and look forward to the sign returning into the community and improving the safety for the residence,t Kind regards Robin.stuchbury@buckinghamshire.gov.uk Disclaimer I apologise for any grammar and spelling mistakes within this correspondence as I was educated by Buckinghamshire county Council before they recognise dyslexia and anything I saved in this correspondence is clearly without prejudiced,

On A413 opposite Avenu Road by track alongside Buckingham Rugby, 20th April
Manhole on A413 previously clunked once when driven over. Workmen attended a few weeks ago, since then there has been a double clunk!! Today I drove over it and it felt like a deep pothole. On examination it appears that the frame has sunk and is now dangerous as drivers will swerve to avoid. Needs some warning and a more effective repair/supervision of the workforce.

There is a collapsed drain at the edge of the road marked with a cone. Traffic travelling from the town centre towards the Old Gaol has to swerve around it. I reported this problem last year and the problem has still not been solved.

Repeated parking by various vehicles causing an obstruction. Parking sometimes less than 10ft from junction makes pulling out onto Bourton Road incredibly dangerous. Regular traffic warden checks or double yellow lines are needed

Continuing: Cars parked on pavement, 18th April
Opposite the Indian Restaurant, where there are several vehicles parked on the pavement, close to the kerb, posing a danger to pedestrians, who are forced to step into the main road. This parking behaviour happens daily, mostly after 18:00 and particularly increases Fri, Sat, Sun. This has been going on for at least 18 months and was particularly dangerous during short daylight hours. It being the brighter, longer daylight hours, time of year should not be perceived a reason to let the situation continue, imo. Whilst the avdc site suggests to contact Thames Valley Police, however, the response was "Local Authority" responsible. Is this one of those cases that might fall between the cracks. If I am "knocking on the wrong door", please can someone let me know as to whom needs to be addressed. ...a pedestrian accident waiting to happen??...

Sunken drain cover, 17th April
Although this has been reported previously, nothing has happened, and the issue is getting worse. Next to the barbers there is a drain cover that is progressively getting lower. If cars are on the otherside of the road, it is completely unavoidable.

On the left hand side heading from Buckingham towards Chackmore, over the brow of the rise., 16th April
There is a deep square pothole, which can't be seen easily by the driver, as it over the brow of the rise. It is not easy to avoid as it is in line with the car tyre, and is a narrow road if anyone is coming the other way.
