New street bridge supports over the A42
18th March
I am writing to express once again my concern regarding the persistent graffiti issue on the bridge supports that carry New St over the A42 which was initially reported in January 2025. Despite the report, the graffiti remains, and I am seeking clarification on why it is taking so long for those responsible to address this issue.
The continued presence of graffiti sends the wrong message to those who engage in such activities, potentially encouraging further vandalism. Additionally, the significant amount of graffiti in the area has created an access issue, as it may serve as a den or hideout for younger children. This is particularly concerning given the proximity to the A42, which poses a serious safety risk.
I urge you to prioritize the removal of the graffiti and take necessary measures to prevent future occurrences. Addressing this issue promptly will help improve the safety and appearance of our community.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Inconsiderate and illegal parking
13th February
This car is regularly parked fully over the pavement on double yellows, blocking the lowered part of the pavement so cant get on or off with pushchairs or wheelchairs. There is no pavement the other side so we have to regularly walk on the road (the full length of the road) with a pushchair and wheelchair with restricted view of the road. On occasions cars have come up and not seen us until the last minute so its getting very dangerous.

Uneven surface
1st February
Marke 67 in the A42 heading north there is a large uneven patch / pothole that could be a real danger for some vehicles. On the nearside lane. Caused a huge clunk as we drove over it, couldn't avoid as traffic in other lane. Needs looking at urgently.
