Land drainage issuen, 18th March
This problem has been ongoing for several years. It’s located between the estate greens between numbers 24 & 25 wild orchid way and is where the main footpath from green to green cross the road. It appears to be land drainage as water seeps out from inbetween the curb edgings, however, Yorkshire water are out to investigate. Their employee suggests it doesn’t look to be a leak, but said they will investigate to rule out. It currently is extremely bad as there appears to be an investation of maggots all across the road encroaching onto both greens. It is also particularly bad in the winter as the entire span of the road freezes up. Could this please be investigated and dealt with? Thankyou

Road markings., 7th September
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.

Missing disabled parking sign on Blackburns Yards, 12th July
It appears that the disabled bays on this street are missing the appropriate TSRGD upright sign to denote that these are for "Disabled badge holders only".
Looking at Google maps, this appears to have been missing since at least 2014 but is visible in 2009s photo: https://goo.gl/maps/XJ5omzxG7PTdizuG8

Road surface, 17th June
Hello the road on chequerfield circle wf8 2an is in need of repair on the roundabout the center has been like this for as long as I can remember. Last year the road on west drive was repaired wf8 2an. I pay for the privalidge of driving and I expect the roads I use to be in a reasonable condition, I remember roads were always repaired when car tax was used to fund repairs for our roads. Please do repairs it is dangerous ¾ way round the roundabout and is a BUS rout. Kind Regards John Powell.
