FIXMYSTREET IN EH52 6AF
The following problems have been reported on Fix My Street within 2 miles of EH52 6AF:
Dangerous parking on Hawthorn Pl, 27th April
This van is parked on the corner of the junction almost every day, it’s impossible to see if it’s clear when pulling out of the junction. I’ve had to slam the brakes numerous times as well due to people swerving into the street, who are unable to see me. It’s the corner between St Andrews Dr and Hawthorn Pl in Uphall, West Lothian. Issue has been occurring since before Feb 2024 when I moved into the street.

Disabled marking, 7th February
The disabled bay markings at the said space are hardly visible and people either do not notice or chose to ignore, although their is a sign on a post it it not at a height a driver would see while parking. Would benefit from a lower post at front of space beside traffic light. Also marking seriously need repainted. Thank you

Indiscrimanate Parking Causing Obstruction, 15th September
At 10.30hrs this morning, I had difficulty getting out of our street due to indiscriminate parking by people attending a Funeral at the nearby Loaninghill Cemetery. In the event of an Emergency, delays would have been involved in the EVs getting access. Not only was obstruction caused to motor vehicles entering or leaving some of the vehicles were also parked on the footpath causing obstruction to Disabled or persons with prams.

Garden Mess, 26th July
55 Galmeinen is a council owned property i.e. owned by the taxpayer. The front garden of this property resembles a fly tipping dumping area and is a complete eye sore to the local community. Surely the tenancy agreement states that the property should be kept in reasonable condition.
