Pavement along the Avenue has broken up
Reported via mobile in the Footpath / pavement problem category anonymously at 22:20, Wed 2 October 2024
Sent to Buckinghamshire Council 1 week, 5 days, 21 hours, 35 minutes later. FixMyStreet ref: 6544987.
The pavement all along the Avenue in Worminghall has completley broken up because of the Avenue recently being flooded. Not only is this dangerous for pedestrians, wheelchair users & prams but also it's dangerous because large quantities of broken up tarmac is lying all along the Avenue. People are either having to walk in the road or along gardens - it's like the surface has shattered!
