FIXMYSTREET IN SA8 3HF
The following problems have been reported on Fix My Street within 2 miles of SA8 3HF:
Loose drain inspection cover(s), 19th April
There is a number of drain inspection / access covers on the bend and as you enter further into the estate (I believe the one indicated in the photo is the main culprit, but most seem to be getting worse). These have become progressively more loose over the past month, making considerable and frequent noise disturbance on the busy road into the estate (especially sleep disturbance recently). Remedying this would be greatly appreciated, thank you.

Parking on double yellow lines on New Road, outside Markwrights stores., 25th October
Cars are parking on the double yellow lines all the way down the road. They are often blocking the bus stop too which is hard on a morning especially for the school children as they often miss the bus as they can not be seen behind the cars and the bus sometimes does not have a place to pull in. The cars on the double yellow lines are also causing double parking issues for the houses nearby who are trying to park in their legal spaces and the members of these houses are receiving verbal abuse, being beeped at etc, because it is becoming harder for them to pull outside their houses. It is causing carnage. I have given 2 examples here but this happens every single day with hundreds and hundreds of cars. I’m sure I speak for the residents nearby when I say that we need a parking warden even just for a few days to deter people from parking there. It is either going to cause an accident or this abuse to the members of the houses nearby is going to continue.
