Road deteriorated forcing vehicles in path of each other
27th May
Road surface has deteriorated from Gearys Wood down to the junction of the Vale road and continues to worsen. Forcing vehicles into each other this is increased in severity as popular commuter route with cyclist to and from Chesham where they are forced into oncoming vehicles.
This is further compounded in wet weather as debris are forced along the road to the junction at the Vale road exasperating deterioration.
This location is exhibiting unsafe conditions that pose a risk to public users. Under Section 41 of the Highways Act 1980, the authority has a legal duty to maintain the highway in a safe condition. This includes carrying out timely repairs, or setting an inspection schedule on this concern.
Where hazards are identified if maintenance is not imminent adequate warning signs to alert road users should be made visible including during night or other impeded driving conditions all of these form part of the statutory duty of care.
This report also serves as formal notification to the authority, ensuring that Section 58 of the Act cannot be later relied upon as a defence for non-repair, delayed action, or substandard fixes that result in increased risk to the public and unnecessary cost to the taxpayer.

First 50-100 yds of "Rossway"
23rd May
Initially reported over two years past, a pothole on "Rossway" has become more and more severe due to wear and damage accumulation. Furthermore, the carriageway edge is now in an advanced state of failure due to attempts by road users to avoid the pothole. It has a rough maximum depth of 25cm, and its present size is accelerating the deterioration of the surrounding road surface. Can it please be inspected and appropriate remedial action taken as a matter of urgency.

Chesham Rd
from jn with Vale Rd for about 300m
This road is slowly falling apart still. I reported this by telephone MANY years ago (pre-pandemic), to be told the council were aware that it needed doing desperately but that funds were not currently available. 6+ years later and nothing has been done, and to be now told it is not bad enough to warrant repair is frankly a ridiculous statement.

Between Hog Lane and the junction with Vale Rd.
4th May
There are quite a few drains along this section of road, ALL of them are filled with grit/debris, so they are not doing the job intended. This will only exacerbate any flooding issue along the Vale.

From the junction
the road towards wiggington is in a very poor state of repair for some 200 to 300 meters.
Road surface is appalling, needs planing & resurfacing, surface "dressing" is not suitable. I reported this to Bucks County Council many years ago, pre-pandemic, to be told they were aware but currently short of funds. NOTHING has been done in the intervening years. Also, it seems ALL the drains from same jn for over half a mile are totally blocked with grit & general detritus.

Tree Preservation Order Application
28th April
I request the consideration of a Tree Preservation Order on the Trees in this area. This is to prevent the further destruction of veteran trees as part of any development works aligned with the National Planning Policy Framework. The destruction of the existing veteran oak trees in this area is inappropriate and out of keeping with the area which is a woodland with the road screened by trees.

Northchurch Lane
17th March
Multiple zones of failed road surface along the entire lane: potholes, fractured tarmac on edges of the lane, soft verges collapsed due to traffic treating the lane as a single carriageway road and not a single track lane, poor drainage in wet weather leading to flooding. Please assess for repairing the whole lane and reinstating passing places.

Numerous potholes on Northchurch Lane (again)
10th March
I previously reported potholes near to The House in the Wood which resulted in the wrong places 350m away receiving markings for repair...but those repairs haven't happened anyway. The situation at the point marked is very poor. Tyres are likely to be damaged. Please have another look at Northchurch Lane and mark the correct places for repair.
