Action scheduled
Pavement dangerous and collapsing
Sent to Buckinghamshire Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 6820575.
On Valley View , the pavement has deteriorated and is now starting to collapse. There have been some large vehicles working on a garden project at 2 Valley View and the surface has following them driving on the pavement deteriorated to the point of being dangerous. Some of the cracks are six feet long. I previously pointed the problem with the pavement a year ago and was told that no action would be taken by the Council but this can now longer be ignored and the surface needs repairing as a matter of urgency.
