Report on FixMyStreet
Road collapsing again every, 16th May
Dear Sir/Madam,
I am writing to formally lodge a complaint regarding the ongoing issues with the drainage lids on A534 Congleton Road CW11 4SN. Over the past few years, we have repeatedly experienced incidents where the drainage lids collapse and create substantial noise. On one alarming occasion, a lid was dislodged and propelled into the air, landing on the road and nearly causing serious accidents.
The noise generated by these faulty drainage covers is extremely disruptive and far exceeds acceptable levels. Under the Environmental Protection Act 1990, noise that causes distress or interferes with the comfort of individuals can be considered a statutory nuisance. If an individual were to generate such noise, they could be cautioned for breach of the peace.
Moreover, the current traffic volume on our road has significantly increased due to the diversion from the new bypass from Manchester. The heavy traffic, particularly from large trucks, is not only exacerbating the drainage lid issue but also causing severe vibrations. Our houses shakes whenever trucks pass by, raising concerns about structural damage and personal safety. According to the Control of Vibration at Work Regulations 2005, vibrations should be minimized to prevent detrimental effects on health and safety.
Given that the road is on sand, it is clearly not equipped to handle the diverted traffic, further contributing to the instability of the drainage covers. The significant noise and vibrations from the traffic, coupled with the risk posed by dislodged drainage lids, require immediate attention.
I urge the council to take prompt action to address these issues, which pose serious risks to both safety and quality of life. This includes repairing or replacing the faulty drainage covers and reassessing the traffic management plan to reduce the load. I have contacted Highways who have directed me to this page.
Yours sincerely, Zoe Price

Outside house no. 104 on Hassall Rd, Sandbach, 15th May
The property has a large privet hedge (c 2.5 metres in height) which the owners have allowed to grow out over what is already a narrrow footway. Pedestrians are forced to either stay on the footway where they are at risk of losing their balance and falling onto the road, or 'choosing' to walk on the road. Pushchairs or similar cannot use the footway in its current state. Looking at the number of occasions on which reports of this have appeared on Fixmystreet it would appear that the owners do not carry out proper maintenance of the hedge, regardless of the safety of pedestrians.

On the junction of Old Mill Road and The Hill / High Street, 15th May
The pelican crossing isn't working for pedestrians on either side of the road. When the button is pressed, the boxes do nothing. There's no sound indicating when to cross or not illuminations to indicate when it's safe to cross. To be clear, the red stop / green walk symbols show at the side of the toucan lights, however the pedestrian button boxes do not work and require fixing.

Opposite Chimney House hotel and along Church Lane, 14th May
Please can Church Lane be litter picked from Congleton Road to the M6 Bridge? There is litter everywhere along this road and it is supposed to be a pretty country lane next to a beautiful listed church. I reported this problem a couple of weeks ago and got a notification it was 'fixed'. It has not been 'fixed' at all. The road is a mess and needs all the litter picking asap before people start using it for fly tipping. Many thanks, I look forward to this road be tidied up (it would have made perfect sense to do this whilst the road was closed last week).
