Signs missing - Reduce Speed Now, 20th February
Both Reduce Speed Now signs are missing on the South West bound carriageway. I would expect these NOT to be replaced if Highways felt the number of incidents on this bend is no longer an issue since the introduction of average speed cameras.

Presumably drains either blocked or drainage not sufficient., 8th February
Roadway and pavement floods regularly. (This seems to have occurred more frequently since we've had the verge and pavement repeatedly dug up following internet cable installations by different companies.) Photos taken approx 4 hours after rain stopped. Flooding is at a junction that is used very frequently by motorists and pedestrians, particularly at the primary school drop-off and pick-up times. Road here has pavement on only one side so there is no option but to walk through the backed up drain water; also inconsiderate motorists splashing school-children and parents as they drive through.

Broken drain at end of cul-de-sac in Collingwood Fields, 14th December
Broken drain, road is crumbling around the drain and the grate gets dislodged. Started a few weeks ago and is continuing to deteriorate. Dangerous as someone could walk over it in the dark.

Multiple blocked drains, 2nd November
All the blocked drains along fiddlers lane are causing huge puddles. They’ve been blocked for a number of years, and every time it rains it becomes really difficult to walk along the road, then when it freezes it becomes really dangerous.

Inconsiderate parking, 16th September

Incorrect road signs., 28th February
I assume the road contractor has erected in several places along this stretch of the A12 official "No cycling" signs. I am sure this is not allowed without proper consultaion and authority.

Visible derestriction sign in road works, 17th February
Pinned location is a guess, i didnt think to get the exact location until later. i was driving to Colchester from Ipswich and came into a 50mph speed limit, I slowed down and then saw a derestriction so sped back up. I then very quickly came across a 40mph speed limit, leading me to think that the derestriction should have been covered.
