Large fir trees obstructing view, 27th August
There are large conifers on the corner of Webster st. They obstruct the view of when you are coming out into Walthew lane. You have to pull out quite far to be able to see without restrictions and it’s going to cause an accident if they remain there.

Parking, 22nd June
Number 4 keep leaving notes on peoples cars asking them to move them etc as they claim it’s a private street. I have politely told them, that it’s a road anyone can park on. Daily they are leaving a pallet of wood on the front to “reserve” their space. Making it dangerous for other cars.

Loose manhole cover., 17th January
There is a loose manhole cover outside our house on Poolstock Lane for weeks now and it's driving people in my row of houses mad. Car's cannot avoid hitting it and as this is the busiest road in Wigan it's happening all day and night. Neighbours made complaints last week but still nothing has been done.

Microwave dumped in Street, rubbish left behind street on St Patrick's car park., 4th January
The above microwave has been left dumped outside a house in Chatham Street and the remains of the fireworks have been left behind the houses in Chatham Street. Only last week I removed a load of bottles from behind theses houses and from in the bushes and there are still a lot more, can you please remind me of why we pay council tax? As I'm the one removing other people's rubbish. Perhaps cctv cameras set up around these areas may deter the flytippers. The area has become a dumping ground. And more bins along the canal bank may be useful.

Speeding, 26th July
Hello First of all I must apologise as I'm sure you get a inbox full of messages regarding speeding issues in the ward, however I wanted to highlight a specific issue on Lee Lane in Abram. As I'm sure you are aware, the road leads to Lee Land Park which is busy with families and dog walkers throughout the day, especially during the summer. However the traffic traveling along the road are speeding way in excess of 30mph due for straight nature of the road leading down to the park. I have lived here for many years and it's been getting progressively worse each year. I would suggest that 3, or maybe even two speed humps similar to the ones on Simpkin Street would solve the problem and encourage drivers to slow down and not use the road as a race track. I know budgets are stretched and there are many areas that need attention, however I believe that just as Simpkin Street was prioritised due to the School, Lee Lane should be looked at due to the proximity to the Park and the amount of vulnerable pedestrians use the road as their main route. I would kindly suggest you discuss this with the Abram ward councillors who have also been made aware of this issue to see if there is any way you could work together to reduce the potential risks before anything more serious occurs. Please keep me updated with any progress Kind regards Mr Myers
