Car parking audley and higher audley avenue
25th July
This is a turning point for cars at the end of a cul de sac however it is treated as a parking space. Some delivery companies refuse to deliver here as they can't turn round. Local businesses in the main round treat this as a parking area for their commercial vehicles at night. Pavements are completely blocked making it dangerous for disabled, parents, elderly and dog walkers who have to take their life in their hands and walk on the road. It is getting increasingly worse.

4 weeks worth of uncollected recycling
18th July
Weve got 4 weeks worth of uncollected recycling outside all of the houses at the top of Haslam rd. When this happened numerous times before weve seen a smaller recycling van turn up and take the stuff away with no issues at all. What we really need is for the smaller vehicle to come up here and other smaller roads regularly. Its pretty much common sense at this point considering the amount of times this has happened in the past.
Please sort this out before it becomes an environmental health issue. Weve already got more maggots than a tackle shop.

Double yellow lines are rubbed off on Sherwell Hill
9th July
The double yellow lines on Sherwell Hill are now very faint and in many sections rubbed off completely. A lot of cars now get parked on the pavement right outside people's gateways. Refreshed, bold double yellow lines might help to reduce the parking issue.

Oil/Diesel spill
8th July
About 20 metres north of the hospital access road there's a patch of oil or diesel ... Was there yesterday afternoon and was still there around 2pm this afternoon. Could benefit from some absorbent granules or other clearance.

Stop Sign needed
3rd July
The line painters have just put a dotted line, here but it's not sufficient to stop cars from speeding down this hill without stopping. There needs to be a stop sign. This is in close proximity to a school - should this also not be a 20 limit?

Overgrown Bridleway Off Brown Bridge Road

Stop white lines
20th June
The white lines are dangerously faded and need repainting. This is at the junction of Park Road and Cambridge Road. Traffic often doesn't slow or stop. This is partly due to the poor markings and the misguided assumption that to the right of the junction entering Cambridge Road is one way. This is not the case as the one way system starts just beyond Park Crescent at 10 Cambridge Road. Traffic may be turning right out of Park Crescent! An accident waiting to happen.

20MPH Signs Concealed By Pre-existing Foliage
15th June
New 20mph entry signs signs (installed within last 6-8 weeks) are completely concealed by foliage on both sides of road, and they've been like this since the moment they were installed 6-8 weeks ago. In fact the signs were installed DESPITE the existing foliage, making it almost impossible for motorists to see them when coming up Penny's Hill.
Since this is a new limit, and the signs are concealed, many drivers are still under the impression that it's still a 30MPH road and fail to reduce speed as they would do if they were visible.
If the purpose is to slow vehicles, the signs will remain useless for this until the foliage is cleared (should have been done at installation). So it's tempting to conclude the signs have been intentionally sited in the foliage in order to catch out unwary drivers if enforcement takes place in the near future.

Litter
19th May
The whole of Hele Road needs to be litter picked along with the corner by the roundabout on Barton Hill Road/Hele Road. Absolute disgrace. It seems to be a continuing problem.

Caravan abandoned
16th May
This Caravan has been left here for over a week. Parked in a turning circle making it impossible for residents, emergency services and food delivery vans. The window has now been smashed open and the door was left open. Someone has also tampered with the wheel and handbrake. Massive arson risk due to the area it has been left in. Worryingly close to my house.
