It needs resurfacing, pot holes filling. Please complete this asap. It has become a rat run with a very heavy flow of traffic especially when the A12 is at a standstill.

This pothole has already been "repaired" but has returned. It is by a surface water drain which I suspect is the root cause i.e. it is broken and collapsed.

Illegal parking on pavement - damage to pedestrians property, 9th February

Wed, 09 Feb 2022 14:42:09 +0000
51.913511 0.856757

On 28/1 I was walking home and there was a wiles contracters Ltd truck parked illegally over the pavement. I was walking with my baby in a pram and it was not safe to cross the road as traffic was coming up the road, so i managed to squeeze past the vehicle on the pavement that remained, but there was a metal bolt on the side of the truck and this caught on my handlebar and ripped the foam. Conscious that it would cost me £30/£40 to replace. i emailed photos to the company who owned the truck and asked if they could kindly reimburse the new handlebar cost . They replied with an email telling me it was my fault as i was moving and the vehicle was parked (albeit badly) and that i should have confronted the driver which i was not comfortable doing as i didn't know how they would react. Please can this illegal parking be dealt with accordingly. It would also be nice to be reimbursed a new handlebar cover but the company contact who replied to my email wasn't happy to do this as 'everyone' would be doing it she says. If they get a parking fine then that would be justice for me, as I will be out of pocket due to the illegal parking that was an offence committed by the driver/company trcuk.
