Flooding from a surface water sewer drain, 30th January
There is a footpath and cycle path that runs alongside the A595 at Lillyhall. Just below the roundabout the path is flooded from a surface water sewer. This has been ongoing for several weeks. I complained to united utilities who told me it was an issue for the local council. I complained to the local highways department and they have told me it needs reported to yourselves. The what three words location is ///combos.rips.beaten.
I have pictures and video that I could send to you if required. During cold weather the path freezes and is a safety issue.

Anticipated issues due to roadworks and major event, 1st July
The ongoing roadworks for the junction improvements will have an effect on the vintage ralley event. There will be a significant and off normal effect on traffic flow giving rise to potential for problems that need to be observed and quickly managed to prevent issues building up which could effect safety.

Temporary speed indicator sign incorrectly set., 16th June
So two temporary/portable speed check/indicator signs have recently been install on the road. The problem is that they are set to warn the diver at speeds over 30 mph, but this is a 40 mph road. All other signs still indicate it to be a 40 mph road, so what gives. One of these signs is right next to a 40 mph speed limit sign. My concern would be if someone overreacted to seeing a sign telling them they are over the speed limit it end badly.

Removal of vegetation, 2nd February
Apologies not sure if this is a concern or a complaint. Please could you confirm whether the planting of vegetation and shrubbery alongside this stretch was part of the noise reduction plan for local residents. The vegetation has been removed increasing the volume of traffic noise. The rd is used in quiet times by users at high speed in performance vehicles. SInce the removal of the vegetation around the old High Duty Alloy's site the noise has increased significantly. If it should not have been removed how do we go about rectifying this please? Regards
