The path is barely useable between Ludworth to haswell plough due to overgrown grass verges meaning pedestrians need to step onto the road in places, needs a good cut and tidy so the footpath is safe and useable

Back street has been like this for many years. I am recovering from a broken ankle and initially could not walk up it with a Zimmer frame. It is sloppy and I am still fearful I may have a trip or a slip.

There are no salt bins up this street for residents to use there are a lot of elderly people up here and people who are disabled who cant get up or down the street .there are plenty of residents including myself who are willing to keep the street clear if only we had the salt .The gritter has been half way up the street three times and never put a drop of salt down . Hope this problem can be resolved sooner rather than later .

No Grit Boxes in Haswell Plough, 1st December

Haswell Plough is home to many diabled and elderly reidents and consists of many sloping roads and hilly areas which are becomming extremely difficult to keep clear of snow and ice due to the lack of grit boxes, infact, no grit boxes whatsoever! Apparently, Durham County Council say that each area has to be assessed for grit boxes, basing grit boxes on a privalage only basis, which is contradictory to Health and Safty rules regarding the Roads and Highways Act, thus forcing residents in Haswell Plough to suffer unesassarily by making many housebound and unable to get to work or travel to local shops or their GP's surgarys in cases of treatment or emergencys. I find this a disgraceful act of deliberate negligence by Durham County Council for failure to provide grit boxes anywhere in the Haswell Plough area, which is a public right and not a privalage during freezing and heavy snowfall seasons, and in contradiction to the Highways Health and Safety Act! As all residents are accountable for keeping their accesses to their homes clear and free of snow to prevent accidents to persons such as Postman, the council is also accountable for providing grit boxes to maintain a level of Health and Safety to all roads and pathways surrounding our homes and therefore, failure to provide grit boxes to maintain a level of Health and Safety of our roads and pathways renders the council liable for accidents caused by no maintainance to clear and grit these areas. I have just witnessed a Durham County Council van get stuck in my road (Kent Terrace), and the occupents spend 20 minutes digging out the van with shovels, yet they hadn't come into Kent Terracebut slipped and skidded into Kent Terrace due to the fact that there was no gritting whatsoever and Kent Terrace is a 1/7 slope, which the Durham County Council does not account as requiring a grit box!

Blocked path, 28th August

A black corsa most evenings parks 80% on the path even though the drives opposite are not used so there is no reason to. Also on the night before bin collections the bin is placed behind the car over the only bit of path left! Hence no path! They have a garage that could be emptied maybe of rubbish...
