Obstruction of Disabled parking spots, 17th February

Sat, 17 Feb 2024 15:10:12 +0000
54.587319 -5.69092

The car I sent a picture of is parking in a no park zone, they're parked on a path for pedestrians. I saw a disabled man parked next to this car in a disabled parking spot and he was struggling to get in and out of his car because of this red car parked next to it. Remember the red car is parked on a spot where it shouldn't be. Its not for cars.

Potholes outside Number 3 and opposite number 1, 17th October

Tue, 17 Oct 2023 16:09:13 +0100
54.6072 -5.707111

This is an ongoing problem where one hole is fixed and because the one next to it isn't deep enough it is left. Because of this that hole needs fixing weeks ;later. THis I believe is a waste of money and it would be better to completely relay that part of the road

Potholes on road from main carriageway, 6th February

Mon, 06 Feb 2023 15:12:16 +0000
54.610215 -5.709198

This problem has been ongoing since Phoenix Gas and Virgin laid cable for Wifi and gas connection some years ago!!!!!!!! It has also ruined the footpaths by broken slabs. The potholes are filled in a few at a time but then the ones next to them that had been repaired need refilling soon after. It would be more PRUDENT and I would have thought COST EFECTIVE to relay that area of road and hopefully solve the problem once and for all.

Dirt, bins and rubbish on the street, 30th September

Fri, 30 Sep 2022 09:28:44 +0100
54.596891 -5.698503

There is a few households leaving out their bins all the time and regularly putting their rubbish either in bags next to it or just dump it there. We’ve had bikes stand out for months and then travel up the road by someone thinking it is entertaining to leave old rusty bikes in peoples doors across the road. Same for another household leaving out multiple ripped black bin bags with food and household rubbish and an old TV recently. The TV has been there for a few months, the mountain of black bags for a few weeks leaving a stench around the place and make people worried of rats. Of course the area around the bins never gets cleaned so it just looks terrible overall.

54.597062 -5.700381

Dear TransportNI, I cannot start telling you how many potholes are on those two streets. I don’t drive the newest car (10 years) and every time I drive the street I get absolutely stressed out as I’m worried my car will eventually just break apart while driving down it down the road.

54.610209 -5.709165

This part of the road is like a patchwork quilt. Large Potholes are repaired and the smaller ones left. The small potholes then become large. This part (as well as more) of the road has been like this for several years and is getting worse. The stones on the road are becoming particularly dangerous when thrown up from passing vehicles.

54.607154 -5.707154

The part of Helensview Crescent outside No 1 is completly full of potholes. This has been continually reported and all that is done is a patch up meaning larger holes are fixed but the smaller ones beside them are left. This means with the weather and continuous traffic flow over the repairs the potholes reappear.
