  • The problem is STILL not fixed - the exposed metal drain covers are sharp enough to shred tyres and are causing vehicles to move dangerously into the centre of the main road (B471) when turning left.in order to avoid them.

  • Two further weeks have passed and this problem is STILL not fixed. It is DANGEROUS because it causes cars to swerve into the centre of the B471 when turning left out of Bridle Path. WHEN will it be fixed??
