New loose road surface has ruined paint on my new car. I live off this road so have to use it, 14th April

Sat, 14 Apr 2018 13:41:31 +0100
54.900973 -1.713313

A new road surface has been laid in the last 12 months on Batavia Lane and it is a discrace. It is basically loose gravel and even at 20mph has violently flicked thousands of stones into my wheels arches for months and has caused a lot of damage to the paint on my expensive new car. It will need fresh paint work to rectify the damage as it has devalued my car. The road also need to be resurfaced correctly rather than cheaply. Thank you Mark

Static Caravan parked in the entrance of the street, 7th November

Tue, 07 Nov 2017 14:37:53 +0000
54.916884 -1.683714

We have very bad parking as it is trying to gain access to Glamis Terrace in Marleyhill fromthe main road, many people access the back street through the centre connecting the main road to the back road. Someone has parked their static caravan near the entrance causing people to break hard as you are unable to see that it is there until you pull off the main road, this is also covering 3 potential parking spaces which is now making other people clutter the road with their cars as many people don't actually have any drives. The reason i have reported this is by the looks of this, the owner doesn't see a problem with keeping this there for a long time, however a lot of neighbours have complained.

Illegal motorbikes, 18th July

Mon, 18 Jul 2016 01:54:17 +0100
54.914689 -1.679707

Several times a week illegal motorbikes are speeding around the land surrounding the former pit. This land is used by walkers, children & horseriders. It is extremely dangerous as they suddenly appear. Several times I have been forced into hedges & my dogs,on their leashes nearly ran over. Also many of these bikes are not road legal but will have come to the area via public roads. The police have been called several times to the area, but seem to do little other than chat to them. No doubt there will be something done when there is a serious accident. There is a sign which clearly states that motorbikes are forbidden but it routinely ignored including by parents bringing children under the age of 10 who encourage them to go faster up & down the main track. The misuse of the land has been going on for several years but has worsened in the last few weeks
