Large and deep hole, one of many which are constantly being repaired., 15th January
There are a number (10+) of potholes in this stretch but this particular one is now dangerously big again. The road is busy, 60 miles per hour and unlit. As a pedestrian, the rain water splashes up as vehicles pass. As a cyclist, it would bring you to a complete stop and cause damage.

Complete obstruction of foot path, 10th November
Gardening service obstructing foot path, when questioned, they told pedestrians to just cross over the road and walk on the other side, told them pedestrians have right of way on a path, a van does not and prams, wheelchairs and people with disabilities might struggle to do that, he just said "oh really" and laughed with other workers and continued working, wouldn't move van, despite many people in the village using that path in mobility scooters throughout the day and it isn't easy to cross due to not many dropped curbs and the van blocking view of road making it risky to cross. Van wasn't partially obstructive but fully on pavement, a person walking alone would have struggled between the van and the wall. The road is wide enough for the van to park on the road.

Temporary Traffic Lights not being monitored, 21st June
It is nearly 2 years that there have been temporary traffic lights on the Nostell Priory bridge. Previously 'Streetwise' have monitored the traffic lights and done a reasonable job, but in recent weeks the traffic light management has become none existent. On the very few ocassions that there has been someone there, they have been asleep, on their phone, or doing nothing with their feet up (literally) - while the traffic has built up.
Each day this week it has been worse, I have sat in traffic for over half an hour each morning, with traffic built up from the roundabout prior to Wragby due to the temporary traffic lights at Nostell. The roadwork sign that was put up in March stating that there were works on the bridge for 12 weeks has now been moved, there has been no progress in repairing the bridge and now the traffic flow isn't been managed.
A 20 minute commute has become at least an hour commute for nearly 2 years now, with no sign of completion nearing. Please could you look into the traffic management, I'm sure I'm not the only person who has raised this issue.
