FIXMYSTREET IN DL1 2LQ
The following problems have been reported on Fix My Street within 2 miles of DL1 2LQ:
Poor Lighting between Pensbury Street and Huntley St, 24th August
Between Pensbury Street and Huntley Street is pedestrian access. However, when used at night it is completely black. The darker photo attached is taken in night mode whilst the other is with flash.
The ground here is uneven and there is bollards which are not visible at night leading to me tripping and stumbling without a torch.
Either the Lighting needs to be improved here or the trees need cutting back so the limited Lighting that exists can spread better. This is an accident claim waiting to happen.

Over grown trees, 11th June
Over grown trees outside my house on the council pavement…… It is a disgrace I have no sunlight and the leaves and twigs and whatever the trees are growing drop all over my garden and drive and block my guttering as I live in a bungalow... not to mention all the bird poo that ends up on my windows and doors, I’m an elderly lady and during the winter whenever we have high winds the branches fly off and hit my windows I find it very scary I get worried the tree could fall and damage my home. I’ve lived with this for a few yrs and each yr it gets worse,I have complained in the past but absolutely nothing gets done about it…also it’s getting dangerous because the trees are lifting up the payment, I feel this is a trip hazard. I would really appreciate it if this can be looked at and dealt with thank you.
