Litter strewn all along the A120 from Colchester to Harwich, 17th February
The litter is now excessive and looks disgusting. Hardly a good impression to give tourist coming to the area. And dangerous for the environment, wildlife and people driving (if it blows on the road), its so bad. I would be interested to hear when this is likely to be cleaned up. Why don't you ask for volunteers? - there are a number of litter picking groups who would be more than willing. It's been like this for a long time and getting worse.

Street lights, 29th October
All the street lights around this roundabout have been not working for at least half a year now, I was wondering when these would finally be fixed as it’s starting to get darker earlier now and there’s always so much traffic round it at rush hour times and when it’s night. I’ve already seen 2 cars in the ditch next to the roundabout, probably because they didn’t realise how tight the roundabout is as you can’t see far with your headlights on

Street Lighting Failure, 17th February
All street lighting illuminating the A133 roundabout and all the approach and exits lanes is not functioning. This is a huge safety issue and an accident waiting to happen. I’m not sure but I was always under the impression roundabouts should be lit and infact by not being so this is contravening laws or traffic regulations of some description. This has been in this state for several months and now during winter months is more dangerous than ever.

This pothole has appeared in the last month.and is in line with the left hand wheels of the car. Impossible to avoid it if car coming in opposite direction.

Rather large pot hole, not sure how deep as was late but drops down and basically a kerb coming back out, 24th December
Never seen the pot hole there before as I do not use the road very often but as a oncoming car was coming round the corner I slowed down and hit this pot hole at about 30/35 mph and everything cut off and hazards were flashing as if I had crashed then it all come back on so I drove a bit further to get off the blind bend and by the time I pulled up my brand new tyre I got put on Friday was completely flat, finally got my mate to bring me a spare wheel and once I got the wheel of its split my tyre on the inside side wall and bent my alloy and taken paint off also now my car doesn’t seem to drive right, really not happy about this as this car has cost me a lot of money to buy now a pot hole has damaged it
