Water flowing into cab from unknown location
13th August
We noticed water was exiting the root near where cab and root jointed. We opened the cab door and water was up to the top of the root. We dug down at the lowest point of the site and cut an opening of 50mm x 10mm in the root to let the water out below ground level. Once the water had dropped to the cut out level, water was still coming in through the feeder ducts within the root, however this will now not reach the electrics. To investigate where the water was coming from we opened two feeder duct chambers one still in use, and the other containing 2 x 6 disused ducts possibly from an old telecom tower. The water is coming from this chamber and travelling through the network of ducts leading to the last cab on the hill and exiting into the cab. We tried to empty this chamber but water was still coming in a reasonable rate. We could not locate where the water was coming from. It could be a damaged pipe, surface water or mains further up the hill that has found its way to this point. We would suggest that this is sent to the council for further exploratory investigation. Once all our investigations were done, the water within the cab stayed at about 75mm below the cabinet root joint and was flowing out freely. Some water still remains at the bottom of the root and will remain like this until the source has been rectified.

Illegal parking and driver not giving a shit about the danger he is causing
27th April
Driver doesnt care he is parked on double yellow lines or that he is causing a serious road hazard as the corner is just off a roundabout and there have been some very close calls of head on accidents in the past with people parking there

Illegal parking
12th March
These vehicles keep parking on double yellows and blocking my driveway making it impossible to get out with my van. I will take action myself if this isn't resolved by end of today. Westfield road by eavy gardens. Vehicles parked alongside house number 22 raby gardens. They're also causing major problems with traffic coming down the street

This through road is a public right of way
used daily by 100's vehicles and foot traffic
As you can see in the photo's this road is in serious need of repair. It has lots of foot traffic everyday including pensioners, ladies with babies in pushchairs, school children, as well as huge 32 tonne bin lorries, delivery vehicles, cars etc... but the Durham County Council response to my concerns, (especially as the road has NO footpath) was as follows... " An investigation has been carried out and the road is NOT considered hazardous, dangerous, or in need of essential maintenance. I would say, they are turning a blind eye and as the photo's show it is desperately in need of repair.

Footpath problems
19th August
This is supposed to be the Weardale Way, an important long-distant footpath. It's also part of the Camino Ingles from Durham Cathedral to Escomb. However just after the gate into Broken bank the path fragments into several ill-defined tracks into and through the woods, with a nasty stream crossing at the end. Signage and path clearing is inadequate especially for a path promoted to visitors

House is shaking when busses go passed
7th November
Every time a bus flies passed our house the house shakes, its causing some parts of the walls to develop small cracks, the worst being on the stairs. We bought this house last year and have realised its due to the busses passing at speed (usually) and shaking the house. We had the house replastered last year due to the walls being in such a state from the previous owners and they were perfectly fine but theyve gradually formed cracks.
