N/a, 24th March

52.642172 -1.07204

Hello, we need a speed camera at the bottom of Colchester road but before the traffic lights. Too many large Lorries and trucks and cars speed down the road. When large trucks are speeding down the road it causes all our houses to vibrate. We are all fed up. I am writing this on behalf of the residents of Colchester road. Please do something about this.

Verge not maintained, 21st March

Thu, 21 Mar 2024 06:52:47 +0000
52.636434 -1.070175

The local authority managed grass verge has tree branches left on there for a number of months from when trees have been trimmed by the local authority. Also the tarmacadam area of the verge is prone to flooding as it extremely uneven. I would respectfully request that the branches are cleared away as they are unsightly aswell as being a possible nesting site for vermin. Secondo would like that Highways or whomever maintains the verges contacts the homeowner at 417 Uppingham Road to discuss the renovation of the tarmacadam area as this leads to a private driveway.

House Shakes/Vibrates, 15th March

Fri, 15 Mar 2024 06:53:55 +0000
52.638036 -1.066679

I have recently moved to this property and been noticing that the house tends to shake/vibrate each time a vehicle pass by the humps near the bus stop. My first guess was to be the water flow underneath but then I noticed it was happening only when the vehicles pass the humps.

Rocks damaging my car, 8th March

Fri, 08 Mar 2024 18:22:16 +0000
52.630674 -1.062214

These rocks have been placed on the grass verge for over a year and the rock on the left has been placed significantly closer to my side of the property. We have cars with low bumpers and every time, we try to reverse and come out of the driveway, the splitter and bumper gets trapped and damages our car , and impeded our safety. Everytime, we try to move it towards the centre to make it symmetrical to the rock on the far right hand side, someone puts it back to our side to deliberately cause harm to our cars. We paid over a grand to the council to get a dropped kerb , not to experience this every day stress in the morning. Moreover, this is a private road, no other houses have rocks placed outside. I would like an explanation of why is this kind of act is allowed? Will the council pay for our damages?

There is a large pot hole going down Ethel Road towards Whitehall Road. LE5 6 area. It is just before the pelican crossing, the park is on the right side. From my picture the lights are the pelican crossing. The ones further up at the cross junction can also be seen in the distance. The pot hole is very deep and can damage car tyres, alloys and dangerous for motorcyclists.
