This street light sometimes comes in & at other times doesnt, 30th April
This street lamp is situated on the edge of the playing field & should be on for the safety of people walking along late at night. Sometimes it comes on & at other times doesn’t come on at all. This has been a problem for the last few weeks & has also been a problem in the past with this particular lamp. Please could it be looked at as soon as possible.

Vehicle causing damage to pavement and kerb stones, 30th April
Every day this vehicle is parking on the pavement, today it is parked so that with its large mirrors it is impossible to pass when walking on the pavement. Often it is left there for the whole day. It is attending Oxford Automotives which is on a huge plot so should be in there. It is very near the crossroads/traffic lights and is causing havoc with the traffic as well as children walking to school. In addition many of the kerbstones have been damaged and are no longer in place.

They keep getting knocked down., 29th April
The problem is that cars come off the roundabout in a single lane, then get 2 lanes for 50m and then are redirected back to one. Some people can’t handle this. Block the whole damn lot off. This isn’t rocket science.

Pothole at entrance to church, school & public foot path, 29th April
There is a pothole at the entrance to the St Thomas More church, school and public right of way. The hole measures 95cm long by 50cm wide by 8cm deep. Given the heavy pedestrian traffic at this point it is urgent that this hole be repaired. It is possible that this entrance is used for vehicles turning at the end of the access/service road to return south along the Oxford Road rendering the surface more vulnerable.

Extremely dangerous bollard set-up, 27th April
This is the second time in under 72 hours that vehicles have crashed with the bollards on the Woodstock Road. I reported the first one on Thursday, nothing has been dealt with and the job has been closed. There has now been a second crash today (see images) as there is confusion with whether the left hand lane is open or not. I myself nearly just got in a crash too as a vehicle came up on the left hand side because they thought it was open. The bollards do not have sand bags in them to hold them down, nor lights or signage to draw attention to them. There should also be a speed limit restriction, 50mph is dangerous. This needs immediate attention.

Overgrown path, 25th April
For 3 years I have been complaining about this same path but nothing has changed since January when last reported except to say it has got worse. My 87 year old mother does what she can but can no longer continue and has been to Kidlington parish council tonight to advise them if this. It is really unacceptable that a person of this age does your job when we pay the highest council tax for Cherwell. When will we get value for money?

Report on FixMyStreet
Unfinished tarmacing, 25th April
All of the pavements were fairly recently re done, there was a lavender plant planted on my property that was hanging over the pavement, I am severely disabled and couldn't get anyone to cut it back at the time the council were resurfacing the path. This is directly next to my pathway to my bungalow, it is a major tripping risk and can't believe that they went around my plant. This plant has now been removed completely only to reveal the true mess that has been left. I use a 4 wheeled walker so this is so unsafe and will end up causing an accident, if not by myself, one of my neighbours may trip on. Its not only a mess its unsafe especially with this area having elderly and disabled people living in. Please send some men to come and complete the job that was so badly done.
