Yesterday the 7th of July I tripped and fell on the pavement at the beginning of Carlton road! The pavement is dangerous and has caused me injuries too my hand and my back and my leg. I tripped over the broken pavement , I reported this yesterday and someone went and viewed it and apparently couldn’t see what was wrong. It’s clear as day that there is a problem and it’s very dangerous for pedestrians. I’m now having too seek medical attention at the GP tomorrow because im struggling too walk on my leg because of this.
