Broken footpath - reference 7624160

Reported via desktop in the Obstruction (Not Vegetation) category anonymously at 15:44, Thu 7 August 2025 using FixMyStreet Pro

Sent to West Northamptonshire Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 7993900.

Despite receiving a number of photographs from my chairman (but unfortunately I don't know how to download from an email), the footpath is only partly repaired and the rest is just rubble. We are adamant that the footpath has NOT been satisfactorily fully repaired. If I had an email address then I could forward the email with photos.

  • 7624160: referring to the precise location of our query, it is a continuation of the work already carried out on the footpath from Hanging Houghton to Lamport. It was reported to me that the work to make the footpath useable just stopped mid footpath, with rubble piled up in the middle. Parishioners ask if you would kindly complete the work on all of the footpath. Many thanks.
