Traffic Management or no cones

Reported via mobile in the Manhole cover broken/missing category anonymously at 06:51, Wednesday 3 April 2024

Sent to Buckinghamshire Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 5798717.

This is a dangerous section of road where there are cones over a manhole cover forcing people to edge over to the other side of the road. Is narrow 60mph road with little visibility. The cones need to be removed over the pothole (as you can still avoid the hole by driving over it) or traffic management provided so a head on collision is not likely to happen.

Updates

  • Almost all manhole covers have some form of identification on them, and it is likely that the manhole cover is owned by a utility company, who are legally responsible for maintaining it.

    This report has been passed to the Highway Officer, who will carry out an inspection within the next 10 working days and if it is found to be the responsibility of Buckinghamshire Highways we will take the appropriate action. If, however, it is found to be the responsibility of the utility company we will report the issue to them, but please note we have no control regarding how long it will take to be fixed by the utility company.
