Loose manhole cover is causing an 80db+ clunking sound as every vehicle hits it. This can be heard within all the surrounding homes. It is probably an indication of a faulty manhole cover that might subsequently fail altogether.
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.
