A series of worsening pot holes, 20th March
Hi. These pot holes stretch from the immediate entrance to stumpcross lane up to the fire station and have been caused in my opinion, by trucks servicing the recently completed housing development and haven’t been put right. They’re worsening everyday and risk casing damage to cars. Can you help please. The whole stretch needs resurfacing

Loose manhole cover, 28th November
A loose manhole cover that has been loose before, fixed and has now become loose again. Been a couple of weeks now at least and it is seemingly getting louder by the day so I assume whatever damage underneath is it is getting worse the more traffic goes over it. It is a busy side street so a lot of traffic at all times. It's straight outside mine and a neighbours house so when trying to listen to the TV it is very noticeable. Also we can now hear it in bed from the other side of the house and it's REALLY annoying. Needs attention ASAP as no doubt something has failed and the integrity is compromised so if left longer it could result in an accident.

Possible crack in concrete but more likely a distracting item, 18th September
On Saturday 16/9/23 travelling Northbound on A1 M between Jct 41 and 42, before I had crossed the River Aire, I noticed what appeared to be a large crack in a concrete gantry support. Looking at Google Maps streetview (screenshots attached), what I saw was probably this black item attached around the pillar. I think it is distracting for drivers because (at a glance) it looks like a large crack and therefore it would be better to remove it. However, it is just possible that what I saw was actually a crack in a gantry - I did not have time to look very hard - therefore please check all gantries on that stretch of road in case it was a crack!
