Overgrown hedge causing obstruction on pavement, 4th December

Sat, 04 Dec 2021 17:49:05 +0000
53.696843 -2.542382

This hedge height is covering the footpath, reducing pavement to single line only, also covering the only Bolton Road signpost in the village. The road (A675) narrows because of bollards in this area so pedestrians are in danger of being struck by vehicles. The hedge has not been cut back at all this year. There is a lot of heavy traffic in this area. Between the bollards and the pavement there is only just enough room for heavy trucks to pass through.

Potholes from Abbey Village to Belmont, 6th March

Fri, 06 Mar 2020 10:59:11 +0000
53.694174 -2.538182

Potholes along this route from Abbey Village to Belmont are getting much worse. There's so many and the increasing size of them means that you can't always avoid them, especially if there is oncoming traffic. They are getting worse every day and I am concerned about damage to the car such as wheel bearings etc. I have also witnessed other drivers suddenly swing out wildly to avoid them, this is potentially a dangerous manoeuvre and could cause an accident.
