Outside Kings Knoll Martinsend Lane Great Missenden HP16 9BH

Reported via mobile in the Manhole cover broken/missing category anonymously at 16:36, Thursday 13 March 2025

Sent to Buckinghamshire Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 7274390.

The broken manhole remains unrepaired beyond the period previously advised for repair and the damage appears to be getting worse with increased risk to road users.

The road was closed one night last week but this issue was not repaired.

The increased damage means the noise pollution from every car passing over the damaged manhole is also getting worse.

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.
