FIXMYSTREET IN BN8 6HH
The following problems have been reported on Fix My Street within 2 miles of BN8 6HH:
Road surface very poor on corner, 15th April
The surface on the inside of the bend opposite the large drive is getting extremely bad. There are multiple smaller holes and rutts. Most drivers drive on to the wrong side of the road as they go around the corner to avoid this mess. This has led to multiple near-misses as you meet people on your side of the road around a blind bend. Needs resurfacing around the corner.

Full ditches leading to constant water on the road, 8th April
Road almost always has water flowing across, even after days of no rain. So much so the road has started growing green algae on the surface where the water constantly flows over. During heavy rain, this increases and is multiple inches deep. Ditches and pipes under entrances all need clearing out to stop this happening.

Regular road flooding, 8th April
I've reported this before and it was ignored. This corner floods after very little ran, and stays flooded for more than 24h after the rain stops. There is a drain in the grass that should drain the water out, under the road, and into the ditches on the other side. This is clearly all very blocked up.

Large expanse of pothole across road, several areas of depth, 4th April
Pothole is across most of the road. It is not the same depth across but several deeper holes are now appearing with loose tarmac. The verge is now being driven onto to avoid. Imagine it’s a nightmare for cyclists!! Been there a while as several holes around this have been fixed over last few months and this has been ignored.

Near to a track and building, 6th March
I would describe it more of a crater than a pothole as it takes up most of the width of the road, with various depths, mainly as other potholes are beginning to merge It is hazardous for cyclists and motorist have been driving on the verge to try and avoid it.

Ditch not draining effectively, 20th February
The ditch that runs between the entrance to the car park down to the foot path behind Field View never drains properly. When it rains, the water floods over the road and path, and stays there for a long time after the rain stops. Unsure where the ditch is meant to go.

Pothole middle of road., 20th February
Pothole is located centrally, so has to be avoided if you are heading in either direction. The location is roughly inline with where the trees end, next to the cricket pitch You can't really miss it!
Arguably, that whole bit needs resurfacing, even though there is one specific hole that is bad.

Just down from Coopers Cottage, opposite field gate, 7th January
During any substantial rain fall, this part of the road floods over pretty severely. As I understand it, there is a culvert that runs under the road, from the properly towards the fields, where the water should run. I think this is blocked as instead in runs over the road, and builds up causing a flood.

Carriageway broken up and deeply rutted, 20th November
I have reported this before. There is now one deep pothole which could damage tyres and even axles. It is an ongoing problem and putting a dab of tarmac in one hole will not solve it. The surface needs renewing. It's only about 20 yards long. We have waited years. It's time something was done. All locals swerve to the right at this corner going up Burgh Hill Road and risk hitting a car speeding round the corner, to reduce damage to our cars

Spooky plastic type road hump on bridleway, 10th April
As shown in the attached photograph there has been placed a plastic type road hump across a bridleway. My friend and I had a tricky time trying to get our horses over it. It is very spooky to horses as it is coloured and shiny. This sort of thing is not usually found in the countryside. Also as you can see from the photo there are scaffolding type poles along the edge of the grass which can also be dangerous to horses should they spook and land on one.
