Report on FixMyStreet
Road is almost unridable. It’s the link between cycle paths to NCN 1. Gets used a lot by cyclists. Not just one pot hole, but a stretch of 100 yds, 25th March
Been getting worse over last 5 yrs. what’s frustrating is that there is a useless small ‘cycle path’ on one side and a pavement on the other with no pedestrians. It’s an industrial estate with lorries and ambulances tearing along. It’s not safe to cycle on, but this is the route! Road needs fixing asap

Green recycling bin abandoned, 11th March
