Gravel

Sent to Gloucestershire County Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 7639636.
The road down to our house is full of potholes (previously reported) but also is now full of gravel which make riding my motorbike incredibly dangerous and is also causing problems for delivery vans when they have to turn round. This throws up even more gravel. A road sweeper got rid of the extraordinary amount of gravel at the end of Lower Common last week but stopped there when it would have been desirable and sensible if it had carried on down the whole road. It would take no more than 10 minutes to sweep our little bit of the road but make a huge difference to our safety.
