Footpath erosion causing danger on busy road, 13th April

Thu, 13 Apr 2023 18:18:38 +0100
52.048348 0.406807

The footpath edge is low at the crest of Church Hill and traffic runs onto the pavement outside St Andrews to pass others. The edge of the pavement is potholed, and dangerous with older walkers avoiding the footpath. There is no alternative path on the opposite side of the road as Church Hill is narrow, with 2 way traffic. This first was reported about a year ago, but with no known action. Thank you!
