Extreme levels of plastic pollution, 23rd February
Farm waste generally from big bale wrappers spreading for at least one kilometre from the farm. Black plastic is present in hedges, trees and grassland all around the area. I have rescued a rook completely entangled in plastic wrap hanging upside down in a nearby hedge. The level of contamination is frightening.

Large number of deep potholes., 17th February
The entire length of road from Lane End Farm to Low Bleansley Farm (about a mile) Is littered with deep potholes. Particularly on the stretch of road from The Lickle Bridge To Kitscar. Very difficult to negotiate even in a 4X4, dangerous for cycle and mitorbikes and when it rains it floods badly and it is not possible to walk down the road. I have losds of photos, but they won’t load. The road hss been in this condition for months

Poor repairs carried out, 2nd December
This recently resurfaced road has been left in an appalling condition by the contractors who carried out the work. the surface is uneven along the full length of the north bound carriageway so much so that it gives the effect of driving along a cattle grid for half a mile. the most ridiculous part is that the road was perfectly ok beforehand and didn't even need resurfacing.

Various large potholes on corner when approaching Duddon Bridge, 21st November
Potholes getting increasingly large, would have thought when spending time at Wreaks level, doing the substandard resurfacing there, that these would have been also dealt with (time and money)

Simply atrocious road surface, 21st November
Time and money spent on, to my mind, a completely sub standard job at resurfacing Wreaks Causeway - road only smooths out when you drive onto surface that hasn’t been resurfaced - my tax money being spent on repairs like this, I want my money back - surely when inspected this will not be passed!?

Lots of missing road making as in lines, 13th April
Can't take a photo as it's not safe. This road has 90% of its white line divide missing. Cars constantly travel over their white line as it is barely visible and cats eyes are also missing. Lots of self seeded trees to which need cutting back as they make a very narrow road with two way traffic even tighter

Street light not working, 30th March
A parishioner has complained that this light has been out for months, making it quite dangerous on dark nights. And actually in the light of the recent concerns about women's safety I think you need to get broken lights fixed. But do keep light pollution to a minimum.
