Bollards down at Watermead Bus entrance
Reported via desktop in the Bollards or railings category by Bill Dennis at 14:24, Thu 13 March 2025
Sent to Buckinghamshire Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 7273431.
As a pedestrian I was nearly hit by a car driver unexpectedly coming through the bus entrance because the bollards are not working and are stuck down. It has become a rat run between Cleveland Park and Lark Vale. It is very dangerous for pedestrians and cyclists using the shared use path out of Watermead as drivers committing the offence are not looking out for them. This is a public safety issue. It is not supposed to be a through route. Please fix this properly.

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.
