Private wall has been hit right next to a public foot path, 26th March

Tue, 26 Mar 2024 20:38:33 +0000
51.187489 -2.534418

The wall of the carpark of Mayfair house 39 Charlton road (running along the public foot path of victoria grove) was hit this morning by a lorry. Insurance has been informed and contact is being made with a builder. As this wall is right next to a public foot path, we are concerned for people's safety when walking past, the stones are so heavy they could really hurt someone if it fell.

New streetlight Barren Down Lane, Shepton Mallet, 19th March

Tue, 19 Mar 2024 10:32:25 +0000
51.19239 -2.543798

We were awoken this Sunday morning to a great deal of shouting from workmen as a digger was driven up Barren Down Lane past our property. When I asked a worker what was going on he told me that a new lamp was being installed in Barren Down Lane. This is adjacent to my property and as we are in a conservation area and Grade 2 listed any work such as this should have been notified in advance and consultation prior to permission carried out. The lamp is above the height of our boundary wall and shines light into our property which is not acceptable. Please advise the reasons for this work and what due process was carried out and your proposed remedy to reverse the adverse impact this light has on our property and well-being.

The whole stretch of road is full of pot holes, collapsing at the sides and there have been multiple accidents lately where large HGV’s have come of the road and down into the bank/hedges (some causing serious injuries) there is also a large amount of very big branches that have come down in recent wether and not been cleared away properly causing a build up on the sides of the road. These issues have been going on for a very long time.

Potholes, 13th March

Wed, 13 Mar 2024 11:33:35 +0000
51.183086 -2.527399

Due to you repeatedly not addressing the flooding issue in our road, your recent bodged repairs of potholes have failed within a month. When it rains, the road floods and the holes cannot be seen or avoided, and are currently bad enough to damage car suspension. When flooding is bad, the road is inaccessible. If an ambulance cannot get along here you may be facing a massive bill for compensation. TWO major issues, is anyone listening?

51.18781 -2.538653

Collapsed and blocked road drain. This has been reported several times with no response. Caused due to building work on Drill Hall lane. Council says this is an unadopted road but still gives planning permission for housing etc on it which involves digging up the lane for services etc. All the damage has been caused by contractors veichles and plant.more planning permission has just been given for another unit to be built therefore more traffic problems. A response would be appreciated

Flooding, 9th February

Fri, 09 Feb 2024 10:14:50 +0000
51.184138 -2.527457

Frog Lane, Shepton Mallet constantly floods because you are not clearing the drainage channel. It now floods withing 30 minutes of heavy rain, and last night was not passable for lower cars such as mine. This is a dead end road. It the last heavy rain my car became stranded in a metre of water. You are lucky I managed to get it going over the next two weeks or you would have received the bill for a new one, since you have been told many times before about this problem.
