Cars parking opposite junctions, on curbs and corners., 14th January

Sun, 14 Jan 2024 10:25:50 +0000
53.114001 -1.11979

People are using the residential street to park their cars to visit the school across the road, they block up the entrance to the road, parking opposite junctions, on and next to corners of junctions. It gets to the point where traffic trying to leave the street is blocked by traffic coming into the street. This happens all week and at weekends too. Double yellows need putting in and cars parked illegally need fining.

Trade waste dumped around a hundred yards from junction with Blidworth Lane, 15th June

53.108713 -1.127724

This is clearly trade waste that has been dumped on the road. Paint has also been spilled and as it is an unlit road, it could easily be hit by a car, causing damage to their vehicle and a potential accident. I'm not sure how long it's been there but it's no more than 24hrs

Large hole at bottom of driveway, 19th March

53.11643 -1.109305

8 Sycamore Close. This has been here a number of months. It is through to the sand below the tarmac. The kerbstone is now working loose. Someone has been on the street and marked up a smaller pothole further up and yet ignored this and a cluster of smaller potholes resulting from earlier patches starting to break up. Wife has mobility issues and gets taxi to work so has to traverse this to get to taxi on road. She is going to end up falling because of it, especially now the curbs are starting to loosen. I would be grateful if it can be repaired as a matter of urgency.

Weeds, long grass and brambles, 25th September

Fri, 25 Sep 2020 15:59:13 +0100
53.095987 -1.114998

The small area of land opposite 11 Andrew Drive is well overgrown and an unsiteley mess. In my view it is council land, no more than 14 inches wide and 25 feet long. All other areas between Andrew Drive and the estate below is srtrimmed by Weedfree or Ulyetes by a council contract yet this small area that would only take five minutes to undertake gets left every time. There is grass growing in all areas of pavement and road verges and our small estate is looking a proper mess. Would you please cast your eye over this, we are not second class people and deserve better than this.
