Failed manhole outside No.83a Bicester road
Reported via mobile in the Manhole cover broken/missing category anonymously at 12:57, Sun 22 December 2024
Sent to Buckinghamshire Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 6890503.
Manhole installation has failed and makes a loud noise every time a car drives over it (every few seconds). This keeps us awake at night and wakes us early mornings, resulting in loss of sleep. Tarmac around manhole has failed, needs to be re-installed or have shims installed to prevent rocking.

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.
