Footpath / pavement in disrepair, 24th January
The footpath between Esh village and the top of Langley Park bank is in a state of total disrepair. With further erosion it is likely to become unusable, and I feel it could potentially be dangerous with it being in a 60mph zone.
As there are few buses into Esh, this pavement is used a lot when walking to / from Langley Park, so it would be great if it could be upgraded.
Thanks

Flooding, 7th October
I reported an ongoing problem of flooding on the road at Hill Top/Ushaw College on 09/05/15 (see photo). 35 mm of rain has fallen in the past 12 hours (Wed. 07/10/15) and the flooding is as bad as ever. Nothing appears to have been done. The flooding is adjacent to a right angle bend in the road and is a traffic hazard, in my opinion.

Road Flooding, 9th May
On-going problem of road flooding at this location after rainfall, despite earlier efforts to rectify the problem. Some vehicles drive in the middle of the road at the shallowest point. However, the flooding is near the cusp of a right angled blind bend and vehicles coming from the Ushaw College direction can only see any problem as they round the bend. Photo taken at ca.11.00 hours on 10/05/15. 4.6 mm of rain were recorded in the previous 11 hours at my local weather station. The road is on the edge of a steep slope. Why should drainage be a problem?
