Action scheduled
Kerb on pavement by St Mary's Church, Bicester Road, Oakley
Sent to Buckinghamshire Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 9083320.
Two granite setts have been removed by speedy lorry on B4011 going past Oakley Church. This path is used by old people, pedestrians and children, they have to walk inches away from speeding vehicles, including HGVs like the one that took the setts out. The last time a lorry hit the kerb stones here, albeit five stones was November 2021, they were finally replace by Bucks Highways September 2023 - totally unacceptable!
