FIXMYSTREET IN WC1H 8AP
The following problems have been reported on Fix My Street within 2 miles of WC1H 8AP:
DANGEROUS crossing, 17th April
When the priority changed, some paint job was (badly) done. This has now partially worn off, so - as you can see - it is not clear who has right of way. In addition, the "Give Way" sign is at 45° and could refer to either road. This is particularly dangerous as the change of priorities was not that long ago, and some drivers may go by memory rather than signage: last month I was nearly mowed down on my bike by a taxi driver who then insisted he was right. This is a HEALTH AND SAFETY issue. I see it has been reported before and closed around October 2023 (?!) but it is clearly there and much worse than before. Please fix as soon as possible.

Extremely dangerous situation for bikers due to building site & street state., 17th April
Junction between Margery Street Kings Cross Road and Calthorpe Street WC1. Motorcycles cross over into the cycle lane due to a barrier being missing - construction site wall resulting in limited view means motorcycles are coming in from the opposite direction without being able to see cyclists coming towards them causing extremely high risk scenarios. I have contacted transport to London but they said it is not under their responsibility and that I should use this site.

Report on FixMyStreet
Manhole and pavement outside 71 Lincolns Inn fields, 17th April
The pavement outside 71 Lincolns Inn Fields on Gate St and Twyford Place. The gaps in the paving are causing major water ingress to the vaults of the building. Especially into the plant room where the electricity meter is located. The rain is causing massive damp issues within the building basement/vault areas on both sides. We suspect it is coming in through the broken cement around the man holes as shown in the pictures. Please can the council replace the cement and check all cement around paving stones on both sides of the building. This is a new issue as we have owned the building since 2008 without issue. It is the Council's responsibility to maintain the pavements and I'm getting no help from this fixmystreet software.

Metal box, 16th April
This is stopping the ducted unit from being able to dispel the heat from the system, causing the cellar and surrounding area to be extremely hot. What is required with immediate effect is the correct measured and fitted recessed steel plate of at least 50% area being free to expel the heat from the unit to the cellar area.
