Dangerous Surface - Speed Bumps Erosion, 20th March

Mon, 20 Mar 2023 14:39:55 +0000
53.612683 -1.286704

The surface is so poor that speed bumps are pointless here as they constantly cause erosion of the road surface resulting in more risk of vehicle damage and also danger, especially to cyclists and motor cyclists. Save money for road users and local authority alike by repairing the road and removing these speed bumps.

Badly Decayed Surface - Speed Humps, 20th March

Mon, 20 Mar 2023 14:33:55 +0000
53.613211 -1.286403

The surface of the speed humps and immediate vicinity is horrendous, especially on a bicycle or motorcycle. It causes the wheels to twitch sideways which could so easily cause the rider to lose control, especially so at night at dusk through the hours of darkness.

Glare from led conversion of lanterns, 20th February

Mon, 20 Feb 2023 18:59:24 +0000
53.627536 -1.298239

Conversion to LED has been very good and works well with low dazzle. Old style lanterns on Main st are obviously a problem and led conversion results in poor performance and glare. Would be better to convert lighting heads to standard.
