16 inch pothole which is 5inches deep and the substrata is now breaking up resulting in many loose stones on the road surface, 29th March
The hole has been growing for the last eight weeks and is nearly adjacent a school entrance. The traffic causes stones to fly and a child might get into injured. The school has now broken up for Easter so now would be a good time to effect a repair as the traffic is lighter.

Street lights are intermittent (pair), 27th February
Previously reported as Herts County Council ticket 401003893440
2 street lights - outside 98 and outside 102 Cowper Road. These street lights are intermittent - works some nights, flash sometimes, other nights total darkness. Dark stretch is therefore several hundred yards. Neighbours are expressing their fear of walking on the street at night. Lights do work sometimes. Not sure if rain-related. 2 lights working together or not working together so connected in someway. Previously looked at (thank you) by Hcc highways and power company but ticket resolved in January. Unfortunately problem still persists. Please help us make our street safe
