Cars are always parked outside just tyres on double yellows, coming round the bend from Wakefield town centre is an accident waiting to happen as people are coming around the corner and cars are parked blocking one of the lanes. Lanes were blocked the other day as a transit was parked there and everyone coming round corner had to slam on. This is becoming a regular occurrence.

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.

Litter between M1 Wakefield and M42 turn off South and North bound., 15th March

Fri, 15 Mar 2024 15:45:52 +0000
53.671319 -1.548563

I do not have the privilege of giving a specific location as all along the M1 as stated is strewn with litter and plastic hanging from trees. It is a disgraceful mess. Asking to give a specific location seems like some kind of joke. Please could inform as to what is being done about this? It seems like this is just normal now, an heartbreaking and embarrassing mess. Where did it all go so wrong.
