On the junction of Rope Lane directly opposite Bankfield Ave. The grass verge has been completely destroyed by parking of large vans etc and there are now deep ruts also the mud has spread onto the pavement. There is a manhole cover/inspection hatch in the pavement and this has been damaged and is an accident hazard. This is a busy pavement used by many children walking to and from Shavington High School and the area has become a trip/slip hazard.
