Parking on a bend, 7th April
Parking on the bend, the van inhibits the view of traffic coming from the left in the opposite direction. There are 2 children with significant hearing loss in the street who dont hear vehicles so being able to see round bends is absolutely key to their safety when cycling to school. Cars parked on the kerbs force road use. We have contacted the company, when a child nearly landed on a binnet a few weeks ago, but they havnt been able to stop the driver. When a car parks on the bend you can see through the car. This positioning is a dangerous obstruction.

Rusty blades in the road, 1st August
On the corner of the roundabout (on the road) going along Diamond Crescent, towards Jade Close there are dozens of rusty blades as if from a Stanley knife. Every time a car drives over them they 'ping' and get moved - I'm concerned someone / an animal may get hurt / a car may get damaged.
