Potholes causing house shaking and plaster damage, 18th April
Numerous potholes have opened around the previously repaired ones. The 50-100 meter stretch of road is full of potholes and is very uneven. Heavy cars passing, SUVs, buses and trucks cause my house to shake significantly. I have noticed new plaster cracks appearing which will lead to repair costs. Please can this stretch of road be re-surfaced rather than aiming only for one or two holes like last time as this has not solved the issue as you can see from numerous reports. I sincerely hope that the damage to my property marks this report as urgent - I can provide evidence of this damage if needed.

Several deep potholes outside 93/95/97 Petts Wood Road, 17th April
The potholes are wide and deep. With all the rain we have experienced, these potholes are extremely dangerous especially as cyclists often use this main road. The riders could easily be thrown off their bikes into the path of oncoming vehicles. The potholes were repaired last year but the repair work didn’t last and the problem is as bad as ever.

Littering of leftovers from their lunch, 16th April
The dumping of this type of rubbish is happening all too often in Elysian Avenue. It often includes remains of drugs/balloons. We have been unable to identify the individuals or a specific car and up until now we have cleared the rubbish ourselves. We would suggest that the only way to resolve this issue permanently is to have a camera on the road to identify those responsible.
