A series of worsening pot holes, 20th March

Wed, 20 Mar 2024 08:36:13 +0000
53.700572 -1.288371

Hi. These pot holes stretch from the immediate entrance to stumpcross lane up to the fire station and have been caused in my opinion, by trucks servicing the recently completed housing development and haven’t been put right. They’re worsening everyday and risk casing damage to cars. Can you help please. The whole stretch needs resurfacing

Loose manhole cover, 28th November

Tue, 28 Nov 2023 10:49:19 +0000
53.69633 -1.30079

A loose manhole cover that has been loose before, fixed and has now become loose again. Been a couple of weeks now at least and it is seemingly getting louder by the day so I assume whatever damage underneath is it is getting worse the more traffic goes over it. It is a busy side street so a lot of traffic at all times. It's straight outside mine and a neighbours house so when trying to listen to the TV it is very noticeable. Also we can now hear it in bed from the other side of the house and it's REALLY annoying. Needs attention ASAP as no doubt something has failed and the integrity is compromised so if left longer it could result in an accident.

Road markings., 7th September

Thu, 07 Sep 2023 14:07:50 +0100
53.690748 -1.309998

I think more road markings are needed on this road, ie for the left hand lane a left/straight on arrow and a right only arrow for the right hand lane. Drivers who don't know this road are having to brake and change lanes quiet late and close to the roundabout. If there hasn't been any accidents at this point, I'm afraid there probably will be.
