FIXMYSTREET IN WN6 0AA
The following problems have been reported on Fix My Street within 2 miles of WN6 0AA:
Sharing disabled spit to guarantee parking, 13th July
The van and the 2 vehicles behind it all share the disabled spot according to which vehicle is the last to turn up deliberately taking up 3 spaces in the street for one household and if you even think of parking directly infront or behind the disabled spots they become aggressive and demand you move the car atleast 3 metres away from either front or back lines in my opinion the disabled spot should be revoked as its not being used for its intended purposes and is just a way to try and control the parking issues on the street.

Hazarous roadway and footpath causing damage and injuries, 8th July
The current condition of Ashford Rise roadway and footpaths is now at a state where near misses and incidents are occurring. This is a safety hazard that is not being acknowledged, nor any controls being put in place by the local authority to reduce the risk.
The road way is abnormally uneven with re-occurring sink holes, also the roadway on the hill of Ashford rise is starting to crumble causing a loose top surface. There has been two vehicle incidents in the past three months, where vehicles have skidded on the loose surface. This is also a potential hazard to pedestrians and children in the street.
The footpaths on the street are also at a state of unevenness causing trip hazards. Recently a visitor to the street tripped and was sent to A&E with a head injury.
I understand members of street have been in communication with Wigan Council over the last 2 years, where the council had advised the remediation works would start early summer 2021. When trying to make contact with council recently they have not responded.
