Dumping of Rubbish, 9th April

A council tenant from Baldur Close in Bedford has been dumping rubbish over the fence in to the field to the rear. When out walking in this field it looks an eyesore when you walk past this section as there are orange recycling bags full of rubbish and a childs car seat just dumped over the fence in the hedge. There is no way this rubbish has been blown across the field and landed in the hedge its obvious where this rubbish is coming from. Its a shame its always the council tenants who don't seem to have a care in the world. They do not deserve to live in such a lovely area.

Nuisance Ball Games, 8th April

Young children and teenagers are continuously causing a nuisance with their ball games to the rear of the flats in Beaumont Gardens in Kempston. There is never any peace and quiet in this area due to the children and teenagers always playing football so close to the flats and houses. We have to put up with this usually every day once the children are home from school and again throughout the day at the weekends. You can imagine what its like when the children are on school holidays football usually all day and continuing into late evening. Considering there is a No Ball Game sign this just gets ignored. Most of the time you would think there is a football match going on due to the amount of children playing football. Action needs to be taken before a window(s) get broken.

HGV lorries ignoring restriction and also speeding vehicles, 4th September

I am very concerned regarding two issues on Oakley High Street. the first is that heavy good vehicles are ignoring the width resrictions in place on both the High Street and church lane, the high street in particular is a very narrow residential road totally unsuitable for these vehicles to be travelling on, hence the restrictions that are being ignored. the second is the speed of other vehicles on this road, it should be a 30 mph zone but the vast majority of vehicles are speeding well in excess of this, in many cases well over 50 mph. Could we have some law enforcement please.

Rubbish., 2nd September

In car park of 98/100 Midland Road, Bedford (entrance of weston street) are several sofa's, beds, furniture etc which has built up over last few months
