Entrapment Area, 28th October

Sat, 28 Oct 2023 10:44:19 +0100
54.51995 -1.536442

When the work was previously done to connect the two play areas , Thought to entrapment areas was not thought about. Throughout the summer I have witnessed on many occasions smaller children being bullied by gangs even bicycles taken forcibly in these council made traps. Only last week a lady took refuge in one side to let a gang go past.and was terrorized by them when she found the exit now barred by a fence, if it was not for some dog walkers coming to the rescue, who knows what could have happened . This is something that needs rectifying as soon as possible

Gates not doing there job, 28th October

Sat, 28 Oct 2023 10:35:33 +0100
54.51995 -1.536442

It seems that all summer the park inspections have missed this . That the gates around the play area are not adjusted incorrectly all it takes is an Allen key to adjust the mechanism under the gates on both sides along with some lubrication, then this would stop the dogs getting in and toddlers getting out when the parents backs are turned

Light timings need to be changed, 17th October

Tue, 17 Oct 2023 16:33:34 +0100
54.531201 -1.541209

Turning right into the college (unsure from the other direction), the timings only allow 3 cars to turn before going red. This causes long unnecessary queues and causes people to jump the lights, especially on a morning. Turning left from the college (Vicarage Road) to Haughton Road, the lights do not allow enough time for queued cars to pass through. People jump lights. Traffic from the right (from the old "Throughabout") often appears to jump the lights or the timing need changing to allow a bigger gap between them turning red and people exiting the college setting off.

Gas company illegally blocking roads, 10th October

Tue, 10 Oct 2023 15:23:35 +0100
54.520981 -1.537254

The company digging up the roads around this area are just pulling up and blocking them when they feel like without and signage to say road blocked. Or worse, they'll signpost a one way system then block that road with their vehicles and honestly couldn't care less. A lot of the time this was done on Saturdays as less chance of being audited but now it's a lot of the time. Where they've dug up, they haven't tidied the roads afterwards so now there's mud and loose gravel which is flying up off the road and damaging cars etc. This is around Cobden and Milton Street
