Multiple potholes!, 8th June

Thu, 08 Jun 2023 00:19:23 +0100
53.575864 -2.571445

There are multiple potholes all down this road from the hill (near the fields), all the way onto Manchester rd too. Some are next to the kerbs on either side of the road, some in the middle of each lane, etc. (All over the place basically) These have been here for over a year I reckon and have seen someone else report these already. They have definitely gotten worse as I drive down this road towards the M61 every weekend.

This looks like a bmx course than a road, 21st March

53.563541 -2.58612

This road from the house onwards is in poor repair. It is unadopted land but was last repaired by the council which surely admits ownership. The rugby club have done what repairs they can to make it safe for their patrons given the limited funding, however the whole road needs resurfacing from the tennis courts all the way to the rugby club. The rugby club hosts a variety of the areas sports club as well as rugby including: wrestling club, gym, aspull juniors, falconry as well as the forestry school. These are all vital groups which improve the Borough and sufficient infrastructure repairs to the road are necessary to make this a safe place for these activities to continue. The road also feed the Village on the Green and some houses nearby which pay council tax, yet are not receiving the benefits in reparations of the road.

Clump of highly toxic Giant Hogweed in central reservation, 29th July

53.57954 -2.55246

There is a large clump of mature Giant Hogweed in growing in the central reservation just north of junction 6 of the M61. It is an invasive plant species and can cause severe burns if touched. The huge stalks and flower heads are also a potential distraction for drivers. The plants must have been growing up for a couple of years as they are now flowering in summer.
