Dog fouling all round the Ditton area!!, 21st April

53.366041 -2.762279

This is the second time I have reported this issue. Why is the council not bothered about cleaning the pavements of Ditton. I no for a fact that this has not been done for at least two years the dog fouling is horrendous and everywhere we walk every corner we turn there is dog fouling or disgusting small black bags squashed into the pavement or partially hidden behind a street light. This has to stop!! Can someone also tell why the council has a dedicated cleaning of pavements in the Upton Rocks area of Widnes! The pavements in this area seem free of dog fouling and yet in Ditton not one cleaner of pavements

Cars persistently parked on double yellow, 31st March

Sun, 31 Mar 2024 16:31:26 +0100
53.367873 -2.757434

This is a persistent problem. Cars park on the double yellows on the approach to the trafic light junction, this then causes the left lane used for going straight on to become blocked until all the trafic in the right lane (used for turning right only) has cleared. I've even witnessed police cars sat in trafic waiting due to these cars parked there, instead of doing there job and sorting the issue

53.368005 -2.757331

On Hale road coming up towards the traffic lights opposite Dundalk road. There are vehicles parking on broken double yellow lines. These vehicles park right up to the lights which is causing problems with traffic not being able to get through the lights when on green and traffic turning right into Dundalk Road. Problem has been for a very long time now and nothing being done to enforce the issue. Peak times in the morning are a problem.

Fri, 02 Feb 2024 14:13:03 +0000
53.389756 -2.747972

As you drive up the lane from Cronton Road, the roadway becomes marked by a series of unavoidable potholes that span its width, leaving little room for drivers to navigate around them. These potholes are substantial, reaching a depth of at least 5 inches and presenting considerable size. Progressing up the hill, additional sizable potholes emerge at various points along the road, further contributing to the challenging driving conditions.
