Kerry’s Farm Lane Recently this Lane has been used to transport heavy plant vehicles to and from the railway line, causing substantial damage to the narrow lanes banks/ road edges. The road whilst previously having a number of potholes has now started to subside in numerous places, this is down to the oversize vehicles delivering the Said if this is left untreated by this time next year there will not be a Lane,!

Urgent repairs to road required - road surface disintegrating and large number of potholes along short stretch road between 6 and 12 Falconer avenue, 5th November

Thu, 05 Nov 2020 10:34:45 +0000

There are multiple large potholes/ disintegration of the road situated between 6 falconer avenue and 12 falconer avenue. Car drivers steer across the road to try to avoid them - however there are too many to avoid on this short stretch. Potholes have been present since at least March 2018 and are getting progressively worse / deeper with the top surface of road now disintegrated along large sections. I have not seen any roads in Suffolk in a worse condition and repairs are urgently required. This is becoming dangerous particularly for cyclists using the road.

Speeding vehicles, 2nd August

This stretch of road is national speed limit but despite complaints to the parish council the highways authority seem unwilling to consider lowering it to 40mph (as it is further up the road).Given the number of children resident at Cow Green we cannot fathom the logic. Perhaps some of the council would be willing to visit at peak times and see the cars and particularly motorbikes race past at very high speed and tell us if they would let their children enjoy playing on the green?
