Wide deep pot hole and 2 others, 24th March

51.379613 1.302366

A wide, deep pot hole plus 2 others need repair. they are by the opposite corner to the one recently marked for repair in shakespeare road. 2 pot holes nearby, at top of gainsboro road were marked yesterday . Suprised my ones were not also marked yesterday this bit of road is is covered with lots of loose pebbles from the holes which makes it difficult for walking for someone like me with MS ( about 1/3rd the speed of others and bad balance so it is risky.) hopefully all this work can be done at same time please also clear all the loose pebbles thank you there are also several other big pot holes by the pavement but i am not reporting them.

Station road. All Christmas lights are working / on. Some are damaged and have their rope lights hanging off. Most are broken and don’t work fully. These are all faulty and need disconnecting and removing due to electrical faults with them. None of the columns have plug sockets and they seem hard wired in. I have attempted to contact birchington council - no joy! I’ve reported on your website and not heard back!

Parking on yellow lines obstruction of emergency vehicle access, 6th July

Mon, 06 Jul 2020 20:51:39 +0100
51.37061 1.300933

The double yellow lines in Mill Lane/Mill Row Birchington were put there some years ago when a fire engine could not reach a house on fire because of resident's parking. Many current residents are unaware of this and now regularly park across them, possibly because they are now so faint. Many delivery vehicles struggle to gain access because of one particular car parked at the junction of Mill Lane/Mill Row. We have never seen a parking attendant around here. Please could we have the yellow lines renewed and some enforcement of them before there is another tragedy.
