Temporary traffic lights leading to congestion back to Calder park service station at 8.10am this morning - took over 25 minutes to get through the traffic lights, blocking the roundabouts and causing road rage incidents and a very unpleasant trip trying to get to Wakefield train station for a train to London, with people being angry and making dangerous manoeuvres.

50m stretch of potholes, 17th March

Sun, 17 Mar 2024 08:52:45 +0000
53.677436 -1.514457

These potholes have been reported many times over several years and we were pleased to see the road resurfaced but it was only for a tiny section of this road of 25m instead of the whole road. The rest of section from Lawfield Lane to Clarence Walk to the end of Park Grove Rd all needs properly resurfacing now. It cannot wait till 2025 resurfacing programme. This road is used for countless events in Thornes Park and should be given more funding as a result as its unfair on the local residents to promote park use to the piint wuere it drives the raods into a bad state and its not be fully resurfaced in 20 years ive lived here. You cant keep filling potholes on this road. It needs a proper resurfacing job.

This car as been parked at 15 major street for over a week, I don't know if it as been abandoned or owner as parked it and gone on holiday, the fact that we all have to display a parking permit and this car doesn't have a permit displayed, quite often people park on the street without a permit/ visitors permit without concern or respect for the residents that live here and have to park down the road.

The resident sees to think it is acceptable to park blocking a turning area even after putting a dropped kerb in which also needs checking with planning as putting kerbstones and a ton off cement does not seem appropriate and has not enhanced the highway at all
