Inconsiderate parking outside my back gate!, 11th October

Wed, 11 Oct 2023 12:03:44 +0100
53.518845 -2.504791

Neighbour and his friends are causing me stress as im unable to repair my garden or put my bins out and even use the back gate entrance most times due to his and his mates inconsiderate parking, And respect for others. Left a polite notice on his mates vehicle to please not obstruct and please park better but his mate attempted to throw it back in my yard before the cardboard hitting him in the face. Karma. Its a shared residential alleyway, but the parking, just my gate is being abused. Ive had threats from him/neighbour of smashing my windows after confronting him. But police did nothing. Whats the point. We are polite people but it seems useless in modern society!

The road design is awful, people can’t turn out properly and the way it’s filtered is awful, if three people go right, you have to wait for them to move, they move, the lights go red, you end up waiting in a queue for 20 minutes, needs fixing desperately

Dangerous double parking, 19th May

Wed, 19 May 2021 22:23:26 +0100
53.53198 -2.5045

The residents in the end houses continuously double park at the entrance to Stothert street. This makes the entrance exit a single lane on a bend. It is incredibly dangerous. Multiple residents have had near misses almost hitting oncoming cars entering/leaving the development. The houses have driveways. The double parking reduces driver’s ability to see oncoming traffic and leaves drivers nowhere to go when turning into the development of faces with an oncoming car.

3 rattling manhole covers - uneven, 7th January

Tue, 07 Jan 2020 16:16:31 +0000
53.52863 -2.476282

The three consecutive manhole covers are uneven and loose causing a very loud rattle as every vehicle passes over them. The busy road with heavy traffic means the constant rattle and noise happens 24 hours a day disrupting our family life and sleep. The grids are owned by BT who I have registered a complaint but not yet heard back. This has been happening for nearly a month now and is getting progressively worse. The three consecutive grids are right outside our home on the main road.
