Currently outside of 29 Brackley Road, there is potentially a water leak where the water is coming out of this property onto the footpath. Due to the weather conditions this has resulted in sheet ice on the pavement which has resulted in people slipping on this which can cause a danger to the public users. If this can be investigated.
Previous report- 866498- Water running from a house is crossing pavement and freezing. Leaving significant amount of ice fully covering the pavement. It’s been there a few weeks now with occasionally attempt to grit (doesn’t fully work). It’s directly opposite the school and busy with school pedestrians. Seen people slip on it, worried for elderly who walk there often. This has been closed without any confirmation on why this has been closed if an update can be given.
