Whitchurch High Street (north end) crossing refuge

Reported via desktop in the Bollards or railings category anonymously at 10:52, Thu 27 February 2025

Sent to Buckinghamshire Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 7197685.

The pedestrian refuge is one bollard missing and the other bollard has no lights on it. Either broken or just so dirty they don’t shine through. This is particularly dangerous at night as drivers cannot clearly see the area and it has been ‘crashed’ into again and again. It makes crossing here as a pedestrian particularly dangerous at night. The road is a main ‘A’ road with heavy traffic flow and large lorries often at speed. PLEASE sort this out.

Updates

  • This has been passed to a Highways Officer to investigate the enquiry/issue.

    An inspection will be carried out within the next 20 working days, if a replacement bollard/railing is required, this may take up to 12-14 weeks as we do not hold these items in stock. Please note, if the issue reported is a danger to the public, we will make the area safe until a permanent fix can be scheduled in.
