The following problems have been reported on Fix My Street within 2 miles of B61 7DY:
Flytipping in woods by Watt Close Allotments, 4th April
Last night it seems someone has fly tipped a large wooden desk unit or something like it in the woods next to the Allotments/School playing field - it wasn't there yesterday. I couldn't see any tyre tracks but it was a large object to get all the way in there.
Also about ten days ago there was also some dumping of rubble and plants in the woods next to there like what happened last spring. We've collected and removed most of the glass and dangerous debris up ourselves from that and disposed of it.
I have just reported it but couldn't enter the location exactly on the Council website as the search box wouldn't recognise Spadesbourne Walk so I've marked it here too.
Thank you

Debris and litter on the Bellway - Whitford Heights Greyhound site., 17th February
There is a collection of street signs, furniture, litter and vinyl banners hanging off the fencing at this site. Could the developers please clear some of this up? We live opposite and as well as the high volume of construction traffic using Fox lane shaking our house daily we are also left starting at a complete eyesore which has stood like this for two years now.

Bins removed and thrown into Brook, 17th February
Hello, There were near a dozen bins along Spadesbourne Walk and through the park removed and thrown into the brook last night.
We managed to recover five or six of them but there are still two we couldn't reach... One on the corner of Brook Road/Spadesbourne Walk behind the garages and another midway along Spadesbourne Walk.
It seems every week at least one is picked up and either thrown into the brook or else the contents strewn about - Could someone not look in to actually using the locks on the sides of the them, that are there to stop this? - It must surely have some cost having to replace several of these every month.

Overflowing bins at the Premier Store Rock Hill, 12th October
I walk this route four times a day going to the school and regularly the street is awash with litter. Much of it is commercial waste from the shop on Rock Hill.
They have bins but they often seem to miss them, or else they leave them wide open and the wind blows all the rubbish into the street. The bins have Bromsgrove Council Waste Services on them. Could they perhaps be emptied more often or the shop be provided with a second bin so perhaps they can fill them and close them rather than just throwing litter in their general vicinity.
We often go on litter walks with Keep Bromsgrove Beautiful and it feels like you are swimming against the current when business' like this just leave their litter out in the street.

Sewage coming out of drain and running down road, 12th October
For over a year now there has been a stream of drainage overflow running down Rock Hill. There was actual faeces coming up out of it recently, should that be coming out of a roadside drain in the first place(?) the smell is always repulsive. This is on a route to a school and passing a Bus Stop where people are expected to stand. I and many others have reported this to Worcester County Council who are 'aware' and 'monitoring' but this doesn't seem to be helping with the issue itself.
It is not good to have to walk two children to school down here every day, and it is so much worse when its raining/wet - as you get sprayed with it from all the cars. It is a health issue as much as anything.
The opposite pavement is also in such poor condition, uneven and full of potholes and near the school so narrow and overgrown that it isn't safe to use.
We've been having to detour down Highfield road when it does rain. Although that has its own issues of cars parked on all the pavements. I can understand why so many people drive to the school rather than walk at the moment.
Could we please get some action to deal with this issue soon? I know nothing about drains but if the overflow runs down Rock Hill and goes back down the next drain along then presumably the blockage is somewhere between these two?
Thank you.

Cars parked on hte junction creating hazard to pedestrians and road users, 8th September
Cars, large vans and flat bed trucks are parking on the road, on the T junction of Shrubbery Road and Millfield Road. This is creating a very narrowed junction that is unsafe for both, road users and pedestrians. Many near misses as it is impossible to see around the vehicles. now schools are back there is significant risk of RTC. Yellow lines are needed to enforce the Highway Code which cites "The nearest you can park to a junction is 10 metres (or 32 feet). This is to allow drivers emerging from, or turning into, the junction a clear view of the road they are joining. It also allows them to see hazards such as pedestrians or cyclists at the junction."
