Pot holes and edge of road on Ayers End Lane
27th May
This road is absolutely terrible to drive on. It's supposed to be the national speed limit but to avoid damaging your car you need to drive towards the centre of the road at low speed to avoid never ending pot holes. When you need to move over for oncoming vehicles the edge of the road isn't clear as covered in lots of soil and shingle making it very uneven to drive along. This is all the way along Ayers End Lane from Pipers Lane up to Ferrers Lane. Also, the road markings need doing at the junction of Pipers Lane into Ayers end to make it clear who has right of way.

Poor path repair.
13th May
The path was dug up by Openreach, or their contractors. The repair is very poor. the tarmac is crumbling and floats after heavy rain. It is not causing a real problem, but the repair should have been done to a proper standard.

Fly tipping
10th May
These mattresses have appeared over night, at Dark Lane garages and if they are not collected quickly people will add to it. There are some picture frames with broken glass on the right that have been there a month. There is a huge growth of weeds on the back wall and the fence is broken. Why don't you put cctv here so you can fine the tippers so they won't do it again.
