Cars keep parking public paths in front of my house

13th December

I live on a Thin road near a school and thier is plenty of parking before my house and even around the corner and at the school St busy tome like school and visitors for the stree people keep parking outside my house and on the pavement stopping people walking past as u can see in the picture how thing the path is, I have nerve damage and a disabled child who hard of hearing and I need to be able to get into my house the gap as I can see due to random people not being considerate of parking means I cannot get past safely if I have shopping and other things I'm so lucky my door opens inwards or I would be trapped. This can be resolved by either adding a disabled parking bay outside my door or putting signs up from you guys about no parking please if possible. Thier are plenty of spaces on a the grass vurge to park and people from the school have the schools car park to use as well so thier is no excuse for this and it's becoming an issue.

Multiple Pothole

Multiple potholes between the sliproad off at junction 29 and slip road merging after junction 29. Pushes traffic out to outer lanes worsening congestion. The potholes are also very deep and would cause damage to cars if hit at speed.

Hi, The roundabout where the M65 and M61 meet up has no functional lighting. Is it possible that a small amount at least could be fixed/renewed?

Abandoned vehicles in road

9th October

These cars have been abandoned and they are causing lots of issues to the local area. They are falling apart and are potentially dangerous. They are attracting local youngsters at night time who hang out outside and inside the cars. They sit in the vehicles while smoking all sorts and playing loud music and generally displaying anti-social behaviour. The vehicles are a potential fire hazard, as they are rusting away and are leaking oil and fuel and attracting the youngsters who are smoking around the vehicles. Its only a matter of time before something serious happens. These cars need to be removed from the street for everyones safety, as soon as possible.

The new surface isn't allowing drainage

19th September

Since the M65 motorway was resurfaced between junction 2 and 3 has become extremely dangerous in rainy conditions! This is not a typical amount of standing surface water. It's clear that it's that stretch of the motorway, because at junction 1 and 4 the motorway is clear of standing rain water, even in the low spot before the climb up the hill towards Darwen. There will be a big multi car crash soon if this issue isn't resolved! Please look into why the drains aren't clearing the water, or why the new smooth surface isn't as porous as the old surface.
