Road Poorly Surfaced, 10th May

Dangerous and inconsiderate parking, 30th April
The residents at no 59 have three personal vehicles parked outside 59, 57 Gratwicke rd and a van on the corner of Blundell's Rd. They have tradespeople present today (and the last few days) who have parked immediately on the bend of Gratwicke and Blundells and outside 59 (house employing trades) and across no 57 Gratwicke's driveway, completely blocking the driveway. This bend requires caution when no one is parked there, with all of these vehicles it is now very dangerous. I live at 56 Gratwicke and have now experienced several near misses accessing my own driveway. I understand double yellow lines are in the process of being implemented but we are still potentially some months away, any assistance would be appreciated.

Damaged posts on verge, 25th April
The posts along the verge which protect the the footpath from vehicles and prevent them parking on the verge are damaged. They've been missing the bar which goes through the holes between the poles for a long time.
However the poles are now rotting through and several have collapsed or been hit, so they need to be replaced.

Shoddy grass cutting, 20th April
My expectations of the grass cutting on the verges last week should be it looks recently cut.... This time was there any point? It was cut on the highest setting which has literally taken of a cm? It's terrible that the grass is being cut and the contractor is literally just skimming, surely it's worth cutting right back short as it will be a few months until it's cut again?

Tree Cutting Debris On Road/Highway, 19th April
Some time this afternoon the hedges & trees were cut along this section of Burghfield Road, (Reading Borough Side). Whoever did it seems to have been careless leaving rubbish and debris in the road, some long thick branches some small, some strange plastics.... These items could be flicked up by passing vehicles or busses and cause consequential damage or injury to someone.
