The area of the access apron to the landfill site has been degraded by the heavy lorries bringing landfill materials. As a result there is a pothole alongside the top of Knapps Lane which is making it hard to exit from Knapps Lane onto Redscript Lane. It is very deep and full of water, with a sharp edge.

Very dangerous road surface in Touches Lane, 4th March

Fri, 04 Mar 2022 17:50:13 +0000
50.881195 -2.947091

The whole of Touches Lane is in an appalling state of repair and needs completely resurfacing! Today, whilst walking by the location on the map, a young motor scooter rider very nearly came off his bike when avoiding a pedestrian as he hit the subsidence and narrowly missing the pothole just beyond it. It is unacceptable that this Lane is considered not worthy of proper upkeep. The potholes are lethal!!!

Entire road surfaces from all directions of Knowle, 22nd January

50.897579 -2.930893

St. Giles Green are covered in gravel, stones mud and lethal when frosty for pedestrians and bikes, motorbikes and small vehicles. The building site at the former Knowle Green Farm where houses are in process of building with the contractors# huge machinery on and off the highway constantly without any effort at daily cleaning of the lane surfaces which is allowing the filth to get deeper and more dangerous and troublesome. This issue is getting worse daily and if your department is not the one which should be dealing with the problem please could someone let the residents in all of the nearby lanes know to whom we should address our grave concerns.
