Dangerous footpaths, 5th April
The pavements in the areas marked are extremely slippery (worse than walking on ice) where the water is running off the grassed areas and onto the tarmac pavements. I fell heavily there yesterday and injured my back, wrist and upper arm. I have since spoken to another keen walker who has also fallen there recently and also last year in the same area. Photos attached. The slippery areas are difficult to see as I was unaware until I fell.

Slippery slopes, 18th March
Myself and my partner at separate times have both slipped on the paths around the walkways by the grassy slopes on the estate. These are often wet and muddy after it has rained and quite treacherous. I have heard from other people on the estate having the same problem. These are all around Knight road on the paths from the children’s playground and the rest of paths around the grassy slopes. This has been like this throughout the winter months.

Extremely dangerous mud on pavement, 18th March
My wheelchair has just come off the pavement and slid down a grass verge because of a thick layer of slippery mud! Thankfully, despite two prosthetic legs and an arthritic hip I could manoeuvre my chair to a safe place.
There are several areas on this estate where slippery mud crosses the pavement.
Please fix this!!!

Hedge blocking pavement on blind bend, 17th March
This hedge consumes half the footpath preventing people passing safely and causing them to step into the roadway to pass pushchairs, mobility aids etc. The road is busy and the bend is blind creating a huge hazard for pedestrians and drivers alike. The owner should be asked to cut the hedge back to their boundary line - trimming the new growth is a sticking plaster - not a solution!
