Sent to West Northamptonshire Council 3 hours later. FixMyStreet ref: 8929842.
The various drain and gas covers have lifted and are causing a trip hazard and making the path too narrow for individuals in wheelchairs, scooters or with pushchairs to safely navigate.
Issue has been present since the cadent gas works a number of months ago and they have simply put an orange sign around it and left it.

Whilst new barriers have been set up, no work appears to have been carried out to fixx the issue with the pavement and individuals are still struggling to get round the barriers in place if on mobility scooters or with pushchairs due to the steep incline created by the uneven pavement.
