Potholes and sunken road, 8th May
There are a number of new potholes and a piece of newly sunken road on the Braunston bound carriageway after the section of newly resurfaced road adjacent to the new housing development. This is causing cars to straddle the white line or cross onto the wrong side of the road approaching a blind left hand bend, causing a danger to road users. Most have formed in the last couple of weeks.

No speed signs, 8th May
Hiya the new estate removed the old speed signs replaced it with a temporary 40 sign followed by a national speed limit sign at the end of building works. There is now no sign which now has people driving 30 the whole way to Braunston. Whatever the speed is supposed to be now could we please just get some signs so everyone is aware what it is. Thank you very much

Report on FixMyStreet
The grass verge on the left, at the junction of Braunston Road & Harrington Way was dug up - The Verge has not been returned to a satisfactory condition., 15th April
Post drainage/water work carried out after the flooding down Braunston Road earlier this year, a large portion of the grass verge on the left at the junction of Braunston Road & Harrington Way was dug up - The Verge has not been returned to anywhere near its previous flat and easy to mow state.
Infact, it is that bad, that when the verges were mown by Council Workers last week, only a small portion near the flower bed was mown. The rest was left - I guess due to grass verge being full of deep ruts & debris: bricks rocks etc (see attached pictures) - which would have damaged the mowing equipment....
These verges & flower beds at the entrance of Harrington Way, are tended regularly, to a high standard by residents of Harrington Way. I would like to think that the Council are able ensure this verge is returned to its previous flat, debris free, easy to mow & fully grassed state again. Thus not just making the entrance to Harrington Way, but also to Oakham, pleasing to the eye again.
