The Link at the top of Long Mead., 28th April
Paths are muddy with leafs, making the paths slippery
Household bins are left out on the paths so wheelchairs and prams can not get past without going on the muddy, uneven grass.
General rubbish from the bins are left scattered over the grass.
Road work signs have been left here for months.
Continuous fly tipping. Household items like sofas, beds, mattresses, fridges etc
Parking is terrible. Emergency services can not gain access due to parking. Local residents were told years ago that the grass verge would be cut out for parking however this never happened.

Potholes at Parkside Drive, junction with Parkside Drive., 23rd April
There are several potholes here that have been reported several times this year already. These holes are getting steadily worse and becoming difficult to swerve. They are at the mini roundabout that joins the Sundon Road spur of Parkside Drive, with the Parkside Drive junction leading to Houstone/Leisure Centre/Houghton Park, and Enfield Close/Elm Park Close etc...It is a heavily used junction, servicing the entire estate and the main bus route as well as school route.
Work is scheduled for the length of Parkside Drive in the Annual Work plan, but these repairs cannot wait until then. Please either arrange for some substantial patching at this location or an emergency fill.

Across the entire estate, 23rd April
Residents report drains are blocked which would create pools of water in heavy rain. Neighbourhood Manager (Peabody) has also noted that the drains on the entire estate would require inspection and un-blocking to remove build up of detritus and litter. I would be grateful please if you would provide information of action taken to address this matter, as residents regularly complain to Peabody for resolution. Natasha Myrie, Neighbourhood Manager (Peabody), 6 Houghton Hall Business Park, Porz Avenue, Houghton Regis LU5 5UZ. Tel 01582 869 274.
