Manhole Cover Noisy
Sent to Buckinghamshire Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 7247624.
Concerning noise pollution. When cars and lorries drive over a specific manhole cover near our residence, it generates a significant amount of noise. This disturbance has now reached the point where it wakes us up at night.
The situation is deteriorating, with the noise becoming increasingly disruptive. We kindly request immediate attention and action to resolve this matter.
Thank you for your understanding.
Updates
-
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.
