2 vans parked on a pavement, 26th February

53.504583 -2.490532

2 vans parked on a pavement on a corner to a cul-de-sac entrance. Can’t get a pram past, have to use the road, as they are blocking the pavement. Can’t even see around the corner as coming into the cul-de-sac as the view is blocked by this van. They park here every day, as they live on the street but use their van to park on the pavement.

Inconsiderate parking outside my back gate!, 11th October

Wed, 11 Oct 2023 12:03:44 +0100
53.518845 -2.504791

Neighbour and his friends are causing me stress as im unable to repair my garden or put my bins out and even use the back gate entrance most times due to his and his mates inconsiderate parking, And respect for others. Left a polite notice on his mates vehicle to please not obstruct and please park better but his mate attempted to throw it back in my yard before the cardboard hitting him in the face. Karma. Its a shared residential alleyway, but the parking, just my gate is being abused. Ive had threats from him/neighbour of smashing my windows after confronting him. But police did nothing. Whats the point. We are polite people but it seems useless in modern society!

Abandoned Car?, 6th January

53.509601 -2.45535

This vehicle I do not recognise has been parked almost opposite to my drive for approx 2.5 weeks and now has a flat tyre. I have seen nobody approach the car in the two weeks over Christmas and it has not moved and I therefore am assuming it has been abandoned.

Thu, 02 Jan 2020 18:35:09 +0000
53.494905 -2.49516

This council car parks boundary fencing is almost totally broken.It now allows vehicles to drive onto the public footpath while reversing etc whilst on the car park.Very dangerous.There are also wooden stumps were the fencing used to stand sticking up from the public footpath.Ideal for tripping over. It's the car park that is on Holden road/Manchester road,Leigh and is a car park for green lane chippy and the convenience store and the hairdresser's.This fence has been fixed before but doesn't last long.Maybe a more secure/safe boundary fencing is needed.

There has been a council rubbish bin at this bus stop on Manchester road,Leigh for as long as I can remember.The side of the road for buses travelling towards Manchester.The bus stop is between patterdale road and Ennerdale Road.Where has it gone?It is'nt there anymore.There's rubbish on the floor were it used to stand.Oddly enough there is a council bin that has suddenly appeared on the corner of the playing fields on Hawkhurst street that is entered via Ennerdale road, 200 yards away from the bus stops missing bin.It would be hygenic to have a bus stop bin put back please.

Uneven road surface,back of tyldesley road, opposite Chester street, near cut through to Chanters Estate tarmac breaking up over cobbles makes it very slippy in winter, plus rain is flowing away from drain due to surface being uneven so then flooding some back gardens, we have general public using this back street as a cut through and council do maintaince of grass area and hedges ,this has gradually been getting worse over the last 4 years my worry is that someone is either going to trip or slip on this uneven surface
