Obstruction in Evergreen Path, 22nd April
There has been a large dumpy bag full of sand in the road for around a year. Work had been done with concrete locally but it seems this was surplus to requirements and has never been moved.
It causes problems particularly at school times with lots of cars having to manoeuvre around it.

Sunked pavement, 7th November
Several people have tripped over the edge of a metal drain cover. Its part of the curb and the surrounding pavement has sunk enough to expose a lip of a full inch. Several people have now tripped over it , 1 of them needing hospital care. We would greatly appricate it if this could be patched up to make it safe to walk over.
Many thanks for considering our request. Pete Pearse

On the apex of the bend there are potholes, 17th June
Right on the apex to this nasty bend, on the W side, there are several potholes, some nasty, that you don't see until the last minute as you approach from the S. The reflex is to swerve right to avoid them. If there is something coming the other way (S) it may not be visible until the last second, due to the sharpness of the corner, and so such a swerve can be dangerous. It has been bad for some weeks.
