In progress
The section of road at the end of Perrymead leading up to Foxhill. This provides access to Foxhill Lodge only but the road is heavily used by pedestrians, bikes and motorcycles.
Sent to Bath and North East Somerset Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 4082921.
The failure of the council to remove fallen leaves on Foxhill Lane connecting Perrymead to Foxhill is making it dangerous for pedestrians and inaccesible for some vehicles. Scaffolding lorries have tried several times in the last few weeks to come up it to remove scaffoldling at Foxhill Lodge but because of slippery crushed leaves have not been able to make it up the hill. We are very worried that in the event of a fire a fire engine would not be able to reach the property (which is only accessible from the lower Perrymead end. This is potentially endangering life. Please could the road and pavement, which is even worse, be cleared without further delay.

We've looked into this report and are investigating the issue.
We will update this report once we decide what action to take. -
Although the pavement has been cleared leaves have been pushed to one side of this single lane road adding to several years of accumulated leaves and debris. This is limiting the width of the road making it increasingly difficult of larger vehicles to access. I remain very concerned about fire engines being able to gain sufficient traction to make it up to Foxhill Lodge. As the road is a no through road this is the only means of access. In addition, brambles and other plants are starting to take root. Please could all leaves and accumulated debris be removed from the road without further delay.
