Hedges and shrubs over path.
11th June
The hedges are coming over the path. Not only is this unsightly and dangerous for the elderly as disabled, It means the grass is used as the path so turns to mud. It also means the path underneath is being damaged so will degrade the path so it will itself require repair.

Parking on the pavement .. not giving access to prams or wheelchairs…
20th April
The parking of care workers overnight and during the day causes a very serious obstruction to pedestrians cannot use pavement for wheelchairs ..or push chairs and even young children on small bikes .. forced onto the road .. which is by the main entrance to Mulberry mead. Blind spot ! This is a home for young children who are being cared for by the council so I believe the police wont have to get involved there are plenty of other positions to park instead of Taking up all the path !!

Water running down the carriage way for months
14th April
Assumed to start with that this was an overflowing drain from storm water but has persisted even due long dry period. Therefore is probably a water leak

Change road markings
5th April
Alot of confusion with road marking here and alot of angry drivers and near misses. Lane 1 and 2 say A6129 and lane 3 and 4 say A414 and A1001. Alot of locals use Lane 2 to turn right towards A414/great north road. It makes more sense to change the road markings to Lane 1 A6129, Lane 2 A414, Lane 3 A414 or A1001 and Lane 4 A1001. This would follow the lanes in the roundabout better. Please investigate and change as necessary

White lines
1st April
Going North, leaving at this junction there are 4 lanes, 2 towards Welwyn GC and 2 going towards a414, very last lane no.4 can be also used to turn around, I can't count how many times each week I have to use my horn to avoid collision because people using lane 2 going toward a414 (lane 3), people on lane 3 changing lane to lane 4 and me on lane 4 looks like I cant go nowhere because everybody is cutting me in, same stroy using lane 3, people from lane 2 cutting me in and expect me to move, but where?
