Drain needs clearing (again), 20th November

Sun, 20 Nov 2022 22:51:14 +0000
50.99463 -2.208761

There is water pouring out of a drain on the B3091. As can be seen from the photos, there is a lot of water over the road, and in a cold snap, that could mean a sheet of ice on this downhill section where cars go too fast. This problem was reported via Fix My Street a while back and was promptly fixed, so lets hope it can be again.

Spring/ stream running down road causing dangerous road conditions when icy, 5th February

Mon, 05 Feb 2018 20:25:34 +0000
50.995416 -2.208104

For many months now there has been water from what i presume to be a small spring running down the hill across the road surface for several hundred metres. When icy this causes extremely icy and dangerous conditions. The council have put up 'ice' warning signs but have done nothing to alleviate the problem. This morning was extremely icy and the road had not even been gritted. Last Friday there was a very nasty 3 car accident with cars overturned, probably due to the ice. There have been numerous accidents over the last few months, and indeed in previous years, all due to ice from this spring. I have driven this road for many years on my commute to work and have seen many of them but nothing has been done to remedy the situation. Can i suggest that the council resolve the problem (dig a ditch perhaps?) or close the road before more damage and harm is done?

51.001921 -2.199954

White Citroen Van LD05 TZJ parked so neighbour has difficulty to get his car out of his driveway. It was left at 3.40 p.m. and the driver ran off! Now 6.15 p.m. and it is still there. This may cause further problems if the neighbour has to park so I can't get out like last time I reported a similar difficulty.
