Existing report manhole cover

Reported via iOS in the Manhole cover broken/missing category by Stephen munday at 16:23, Wednesday 8 April 2026

Sent to Buckinghamshire Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 9259371.

Reported in February manhole cover dropped and loose dangerous location still not attended to. Reported here and to Thames water but still no action taken.

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.
