Atrocious footpaths, 29th January

Sun, 29 Jan 2023 14:01:58 +0000
53.542846 -2.537536

The footpath over the railway bridge and surrounding area are absolutely filthy. The footpath on the bridge has not been cleaned for at least two years and consequently has accumulated layers of dead leaves which are soft under foot. We pay our taxes as do the residents of Chorley New Road yet their footpaths are regularly cleaned. Why are we not afforded the luxury of a road sweeper occasionally

53.542986 -2.537214

The railway fence adjacent to the bridge on Wigan Road has been collapsing for about two years and was reported by myself to the council at the time. It has gradually got worse and is now causing subsidence of the footpath. It appears that the slippage of the embankment has accelerated. Is this an accident waiting to happen, potentially with catastrophic consequences.
