FIXMYSTREET IN LA15 8AL
The following problems have been reported on Fix My Street within 2 miles of LA15 8AL:
Not enough signage, 9th April
On the way to askam there is roadworks that are just behind a bend. There is minimum road signs and no big signs telling people to slow down. The speed limit for this road is 60mph. However, most people exceed this limit and I see this daily. I would also like to state the road is downhill which naturally increases speed and reduces stopping as quick. I have been at the lights on various occasions and other road users have put there hazards on as it feels as though people are going straight in the back of you.

2 potholes on both side of the carriageway., 7th April
Both sides of the carriageway have potholes making cars on both sides swerve towards each other into the centre of the road getting very close to each other in order to avoid the pot holes. It’s an accident waiting to happen!

Cemetery Hill road flooding, 6th April
Top of Cemetery Hill is flooding when raining. After checking the drain this is blocked. The drain is located before the turning of Holligate road, on the pedestrian side of road. This has caused damaged to my fence by cars traveling through the water splashing over into my back garden and killed several plants. This is also a public safety risk due to cars having to either avoid the large area of water by traveling on other side of road, or aqua plane through the water. This happens every year at same time and i reported this problem last year which again caused damage to my property.
