Outside 4 St Johns road where there was a dropped kerb
Reported via mobile in the Kerb damage / issue category by Brian Rogers at 15:28, Mon 8 April 2024
Sent to Buckinghamshire Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 5824643.
There's a drain in the road that is about halfway along my dropped kerb. The drain collapsed and sometime ago a crew attempted a repair. They did not address the collapsing issue but merely tarmaced the area around the drain. in so doing they have effectively created a kerb that I cannot maneuver my caravan over. In attempting to get my caravan onto my drive I effectively blocked the entire road and had to rely on the people whose journey I had ruined to help me manhandle my caravan into position. To get it out of the way for them selves!
