Flooding due to lack of drains on lower lees road, 1st September
There are no drains on the lower lees road…water comes down from the top of the lees and down my drive flooding the area every time it rains and has washed the drive away several times which needed replacing at great cost to me. This has been reported several times but nothing has been done. These are listed buildings and I want to preserve them. I would like a site visit and something to be done about this to fix the matter.

No view of traffic from right travelling at 40mph (if we are lucky), 5th July
This junction is a death trap waiting to happen. The A28 is a busy road and yet the view to the right from the junction with Shalmsford Road is about 30m. This has been reported before and nothing was done apart from a hedge trim - surprisingly it grew again! The hedge of the bungalow (occupied by an old couple) has grown substantially and now blocks the view. Just cutting the hedge is not a solution, something more dramatic needs to be done to vastly improve the view and make the junction safe. Pulling out into traffic travelling at a minimum of 40mph is like Russian roulette. I intend setting up a petition to get the Highways Agencies and Councils to actually take action before we have more deaths on this road.

Report on FixMyStreet
The pothole I reported last June is getting bigger and more dangerous on an unlit single track road which is also a public footpath used regularly by myself and dog walkers so only a matter of time before someone falls or twists an ankle., 30th December
Pothole outside my house (Rodema, Bowerland Lane) expanding in width and depth (first reported in June 19) - only a matter of time before it causes an injury to me or someone else using this public right of way - there are more potholes also getting bigger, at the top of the road adjoining Lower Lees Road. Ignoring these is not acceptable for rate payers who are not provided with street lights or drainage making such an ill maintained lane/public right of way so dangerous.
