The pathway from newbottle primary academy school heading towards Staddon Way, Newbottle has street lights but they are never turned on. The lights were erected a few years ago. This makes it very dark especially in the winter for children leaving school and for dog walkers. There is also a new estate beside this pathway which must make it unsafe for them too. Please turn these lights on!!

Collapsed fence on Houghton Road, next to car park, 5th February

54.853939 -1.477054

The fence at the small car park on Houghton Road, next to Hillview Road has collapsed. The fence continues all the way down the street, so we believe it is not owned by the person that owns the small plot of land on Hillview Road. If the fence is owned by them, nobody has their details as they have abandoned the plot and have not been seen since May 2022.
