Pavement outside Well Street United Church
Sent to Buckinghamshire Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 6538712.
The tarmac on the pavement outside of Well Street United Church is extremely uneven and wearing in places. This causes trip hazards and makes pushing buggies and wheelchairs over it very difficult. The slope from the road is very badly worn and pushing a buggy/wheelchair or using a mobility scooter is extremely difficult. As there are no drop kerbs on that side of the road this is the only non-stepped access for the enter stretch of the road and this means access to the church building is compromised. This issue has been getting steadily worse over a period of time and bad weather has not helped the situation.
