Abandoned items in the roadway

Reported via desktop in the Flytipping category by Paul Osborne at 16:47, Wednesday 1 April 2026

Sent to Bristol City Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 9226606.

Abandoned items in the roadway - some bricks, a road sign, two large pointy planks of wood .... I wonder if the entirety of Cabot Way over The Floating Harbour should be given regular attention - things fall off vehicles on the on ramp, on the bend in the on ramp and, on the bridge - and are there for ages until they are ground down by vehicles running over them - creating mini piles of debris which is no fun to have to avoid. Thanks.
