A week last Thursday, the 31st of August, I was walking down Begrave road, North side pavement, after a rain shower, and slipped on the very slippery sheet steel access cover, the larger or most Easterly of the 2 at the start of the Northside pavement, leaving Whiteladies Road. I broke my wrist in the fall, having had it x-rayed and confirmed by a hospital minor injuries unit. Therefore, I feel it is really dangerous and should be made safe with some kind of anti-slip treatment as soon as is possible to do so to stop others suffering the same fate, or worse, as me. Can you let me know what your assessment is, and please feel free to contact me for further details. My accident occured around 12pm,Thursday 31st July.
