Huge puddles just past the Rugby Club opposite Retreat Road near the crossing. And in front of the Bus Stop past Ashford Road going to Exeter. Both problems have been repotted by Mr Leadbetter MP and Simon Jupp MP but to know avail. The one by the bus stop means that people standing there waiting for a bus get soaked. The Paths in Exeter Road and most of Topsham have not been swept and cleaned since before the pandemic

Homeless man’s old camp, 7th February

Mon, 07 Feb 2022 09:49:14 +0000
50.695247 -3.4735

This relates to the area of land between the M5 motorway and the footpath running alongside the playing fields used by Exeter University. A homeless man was living there (where pin shown on map) but has since been housed. Left behind is his camp with a huge amount of litter to clear, as well as general litter recently uncovered by the vegetation being cut back by highways employees. As this land isn’t owned by the council they won’t clear it up. It requires specialist protective equipment due to the nature of the camp and large volume of litter, otherwise I’d just do it myself. It says don’t include contact details but I would like to be contacted to know that this will be cleared please as it’s right next to a public footpath used regularly and has been in this state for around 6 months with no change.

Further up Exeter Rd Burrington Estates are starting to build their homes their artic vehicles and Lorries some carrying heavy duty tool hire are using Hamilton Rd to turn and reverse into, thus holding up the traffic but creating a huge pothole in our road. Why don’t the6 use their own building site land to reverse and turn their very heavy duty vehicles?, 12th April

This reversing into our road started approx 2-3 weeks ago, it means2 workmen have to stop all the traffic while the reversing takes place. I’m not talking about a small lorry, these are huge artic lorries often carrying other vehicles on their trailers. The reversing into Hamilton Rd is happening throughout the day and creating a massive pothole. Why don’t Burrington Estates use their own building site land to turn and reverse their vehicles?

Water / fluid keeps coming through tarmac, 2nd May

Tue, 02 May 2017 15:18:29 +0100
50.681126 -3.44222

For many months, at least since January this year, water has been coming up through tarmac in this location. South West Water has been called out at least twice by myself and other residents, including last week. My understanding from speaking to staff investigating on site is that their tests suggest it is not a mains water leak and probably not a sewerage issue, although latter was not entirely ruled out. What the actual problem is, I don't know. Apparently SW Water responsibility doesn't go beyond these specific issues. The problem doesn't go away during prolonged periods without rainfall, and appears to be getting worse. Residents want this problem solved. Please escalate to appropriate level in Council, environment agency or whoever is responsible. Thanks
