REALLY NOISY loose ironworks, 7th March
This is an ongoing problem with really LOUD ironworks that have worked loose with traffic passing over them. It doesn't seem that long since they were replaced.
There's several solutions out there that I've emailed the councils before such as this one: https://www.noisestop.it/en/
The current "quick fix" is not cost efficient or has longevity and it's driving everyone mad. I hope they complain too!

Give Way sign unlit, 24th February
The light on the Give Way sign at the junction of Moorland Avenue onto Staincross Common is not lit. This makes it very difficult at night to see the turn into Moorlands Avenue when driving along Staincross Common to turn right into it. Cars behind you on the main road are then impatient if you belatedly indicate right because the light at the sign cannot be seen to highlight the turn off.

Can’t see the traffic light from the left hand lane, 20th February
I regularly drive down this road and when you are at the front of the queue at the traffic lights in the left hand lane you can’t see the traffic light. All of the other traffic lights nearby are controlling other traffic and it is confusing and dangerous. There needs to be another traffic light that can be easily seen.

Dangerous parking, 19th January
Vehicles are dangerously being parked and left abandoned at the junction of Mapplewell Drive and Carr Green Lane obscuring the view of other traffic and pedestrians when pulling out of the junction. The are also causing an unnecessary obstruction for large goods vehicles trying to get past. This is an ongoing issue and vehicles are constantly being left in dangerous positions and a number of near miss accidents have been witnessed because of the inconsiderate dangerous way that the vehicles are being parked
