Subject: Safety Hazard Due to Awning and Advertisement on Charlotte Street, 30th April
Description of Issue: I wish to report a serious hazard at the junction of Charlotte Street and Park Street, where an awning and advertisement extend about 12 feet into the road, obscuring drivers’ views of pedestrians and cyclists. This is particularly dangerous as the road incline causes vehicles to struggle to see and react to uphill cyclists.
Additional Concerns: Residents are concerned as the awning also leaks onto Hill Street, limiting alternative routes and increasing the risk of accidents at this busy junction.
Suggested Actions:
1. Trim back the awning to improve visibility. 2. Ideally, reposition the awning to avoid covering the junction, ensuring clear sightlines for all road users.

Pavement unsuitable for parents with children, 30th April
Where Cotham brow meets the roundabout the pavement is so narrow parents with prams or walking children by hand are often rubbing shoulders with vehicle mirrors as the pass the marked crossing zone of the pavement. This is made hugely worse when people are trying to cross then you end up with people entering the road to make enough space. This is a heavily used junction but with a redesign there is enough space to enlarge these pedestrian pavements.
Junction also encourages speeding traffic which amplifies the danger.
Previously raised issue closed without resolution or any action.
