FIXMYSTREET IN TA1 4QB
The following problems have been reported on Fix My Street within 2 miles of TA1 4QB:
Dangerous surface for cyclists on the Markethouse roundabout, 27th April
This roundabout hasn't been properly maintained since it was built in 1996. There are big gaps between the cobbles that act like tramrails. Should my wheel get caught in one of them, I could have a nasty fall. I am also afraid my bike can get damaged, because of the bumpy ride. I therefore ride very slowly and because I am concentrating on the surface I am riding on, it is hard to also look around me to find out where the other road users are. I have to grip my handlebar very tightly to be able to steer and I can't take my hand off to indicate when turning left. Cycling on this surface is even more dangerous when it's wet. There have been several accidents. It is a matter of when, not if, someone will get seriously injured.

Two dead tress, 20th April
There are two dead trees on the council owned grass verge at Statham GROVE. These have been reported several times. If this tree was to fall during a storm it would cause damage to properties. I believe these are ash trees. For two years during the summer they have not had green leaves. Would love them to be dealt with and replaced.
