Walking with a pram the pavement was completely blocked for our use. And I was forced to cross a busy road and then cross back over.

40.or 50mph?
26th February
The speed limit signs are confusing and appear altered by someone - there 40mph signs mixed with 50mph signs at random intervals. The original speed limit was 50mph so has this been changed or has someone just put up 40mph signs. Really important for the signs here to be accurate as there are multiple speed cameras on this road and it's causing great confusion.

Speed signs
25th February
Along the A452 coming from Brownhills heading towards Birmingham the speed is usually 50mph, but i notice last night that there are some signs saying 40mph and some saying 50mph on the same stretch of road, furthermore there is a speed camera closeby, my satnav (waze) was still showing me it was 50mph, could i just get this clarify

Conflicting speed limit signs
21st February
At the point of the road where the speed limit changes from 30, the left side new speed limit sign has been changed to 40, while the right side speed limit sign remains at 50. Furthermore, along this stretch of Chester Road there is a mixture of 40 and 50 repeater signs, which makes it very confusing. There are no signs on entering this stretch of road to say that there is a new speed limit in force (the original speed limit was 50)

Damaged traffic signage
1st February
I travel the A452 most weekdays, one of the islands that are all along the road that have two pollards and a light on them has been smashed. This is in a dark part of the road so if you dont know it is there and try to over take a bike, like I sometimes have to you could end up smashing into it.
Also I think some signs further down this road have been stollen. The signs Im talking about are the warning arrows, highlighting a bend in the road.

Well done for the improvements to the road/green space opposite Leighswood School . It was looking great
14th September
Unfortunately now that the work appears to have finished the residents have continued to assume it is their right to park 3 feet from their front doors . They are bumping their cars up the new verges and over the newly landscaped and seeded areas . Already grooves are starting to appear . This is a really shame , as well as being selfish it continues to be a danger the school children walking on the new pavements and grassy areas . Please look into ways to stop this selfie practice , maybe bollards?

Overgrown hedges taking over footpath
7th September
The hedges are severely overgrown meaning that there is only around 1 foot left of pavement to walk on, this is a busy path on a school route and it is not safe. There are long brambles taking over and it is a hazard to walk past.
