Flooding since Jan 6th, 19th February

Mon, 19 Feb 2024 09:19:06 +0000
51.934346 0.992639

Flooding since Jan 6th Need the road closing as lorries going past are causing a wash that is breaching sandbanks stopping the water reaching front doors. Until the problem is solved a road closure would make life slightly easier. The banks are being eroded causing silt that is going into sewers and blocking them. Already Anglia water have had to pump out sewers.

Coggeshall Rd & Hunters Chase are both impassable for long stretches. Deep water. Cars getting stuck. Flooding also masks deep potholes & it is impossible to see where the roads meet ditches at the side. Really, really dangerous

I have reported this to National power and they say its BT cables, Open Reach say that the Tree needs to be report to Highways and when i go into Highways, its says its not them and directs me to this website. The tree has been hanging on cables for weeks and I have been reporting for weeks. After the storms last night the tree has moved and the cable is hanging lower across the road and could fell and hurt someone anytime. It's Bromley Road if you heading through Little Bromley towards Lawford and the nearest house is Lawford House Farm the sign is at the side of the road after the tree. CO11 2ND. PLEASE CAN SOMEONE PLEASE DEAL WITH THIS.

Inadequate and missing road signs at dangerous junction, 9th May

Tue, 09 May 2023 08:06:18 +0100
51.925607 0.971908

This junction has been the scene of multiple accidents- at least three since Christmas. Signage was already inadequate, but a recent accident (31 Jan) flattened a sign which has not been replaced. Cars coming from Wick Lane towards Ardleigh who don’t know the area tend to shoot over the junction. Residents are seriously concerned. We have escalated to the ECC portfolio holder and to our MP in desperation.
