FIXMYSTREET IN NN3 3LL
The following problems have been reported on Fix My Street within 2 miles of NN3 3LL:
Advertising banner blocking visibility, 29th April
Vauxhall have installed an advertising banner blocking the visibility through the safety fence at the crossing of the A45 exit slip at the riverside roundabout. I do NOT believe this is a designated advertising space. By blocking the visibility at the barrier a wheelchair user can now no longer determine if there are any vehicles approaching the crossing without physically being in the road. The presents a serious safety breach in addition to being a potentially unauthorised space to advertise. I have almost been hit by a car on two separate occasions by having to stray so far into the live lane during crossing whist the crossing was lit for pedestrians to cross.

Hedge is blocking 75% of the footpath / cyclepath, 29th April
There is a hedge that has overgrown and is blocking almost 75% of the footpath and cycle path between Rushmere Road (at the side of Old Scouts Rugby Football club) and bedford Road approx half way through. As a wheelchair user and rider of a disabled recumbent hand cycle this overgrown bush means I struggle to use the route as I have to go over the grass and often I end up with dog faeces on my wheels and subsequently my hands

Trees have been trimmed all along but the job has caused problems, 29th April
Customer states the tree trimmers have cut back trees to main trunk and one taken down to a stump. One tree has a very large limb that was dropped during the process onto the hedgerow and damaged it and the fence. The whole area looks terrible and the sound deadening has been taken away. They have gone made with it. The job should be inspected and the team should be advised how to do this properly. All the bits and pieces blew into residents gardens. They no longer have privacy from the main road. Very bad job. Hedgerow now too short.

Report on FixMyStreet
"The car is blocking the pedestrian pathway.", 27th April
"The vehicle owner has blocked the pedestrian pathway by parking their car three days ago. This isn't the first occurrence. It's a large van that, even when parked in a parking space, poses a hazard by limiting visibility for other drivers. "This time, it's preventing normal use for pedestrians, people with disabilities, or parents with strollers. "We don't have assigned parking spaces, but this person doesn't even live here."

Potholes getting deeper and road surface elsewhere is degrading, 24th April
Within 20 meters of the traffic lights the pot holes are getting deeper to the point of dangerous and the road surface is just wearing away. Whoever fixed it last time, did a terrible job and just chucked a blob of tarmac in the middle - where was the QA? Any and all repairs have worn away badly and there will be a tragedy before too long
