Please clean up Bath Street for real this time, 25th April
My previous report on this was marked as fixed on the 20th, but I don’t think that any discernible change in the quantity of litter really occurred then. The street still has litter and the alley next to No 36 looks like a tip (and it spills out).

Traffic Signal on St Clements only stays green for 6 seconds, 25th April
The Traffic signal on St Clements just when you come out of the Morrell Avenue stays red for most of the time and only becomes green for maximum of 6 seconds before going red again for nearly 2 minutes, it causes the traffic to build up even more on Morrell Avenue and can take people nearly 40 minutes just to get out of there, it only lets literally 2 cars out once in 2 minutes which is very strange whereas other signals seem to work fine

Bins from 7 Albert St put out more than 24 hours ahead of collection, in access only bike park area., 25th April
Bins from 7 Albert St put out more than 24 hours ahead of collection, in access only bike park area.
Tenants at 7 Albert St have access only on bin days to the car park of 1-6Albert St. However, 2-3 bins have been persistently left in the car park from Sept 2023 onwards, interfering with residents free use of bike racks, causing persistent blockage and encouraging flytipping.

The pavement is completely blocked by bushes and overhanging trees., 24th April
Completely blocked pavement. Has been getting worse for months but now is completely blocked. The pavement itself has huge amounts of moss, grass and soil on it. Not only is it an eyesore but it is no longer usable as a pavement.

Gate has been locked shut, blocking cycle path for over a week, 24th April
As per title, why is the cycle path closed off like this? I've already witnessed a number of near misses as cyclists try to go round the gate by mounting the narrow pavement on a blind corner onto the rec.

Report on FixMyStreet
Unsafe tree pit with no fall protection, 24th April
On 23 April I was walking past the tree pit (opposite Dominos pizza, Frideswide Square) and at the last second avoided falling into the exposed hole. This is exceptionally dangerous and could result in a severe injury to pedestrians/cyclists using this pavement.
I spoke to a site operative of Kier who are doing the bridge works but he said it was not part of their site and nothing could be done.
Even it this is temporary, all it requires is a barrier to be erected to prevent pedestrians from tripping/falling into the hole.

Light comes on for 15 seconds and then goes off, 24th April
Light is intermittent leaving the area very dark when it suddenly and repeatedly cuts out. Because this is now a diversion route from the closed towpath, at night bikes and pedestrians are hard to see in the dark
