Damaged manhole cover outside 4 Summerlea
Reported via desktop in the Manhole & drain cover damage category anonymously at 16:51, Tuesday 21 January 2025
Sent to Bath and North East Somerset Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 7012964.
This manhole cover has shattered. There's currently a board over the hole, but this is likely to cause a trip hazard for anyone walking on the pavement, and there's no streetlights in the area so that makes it more likely and has health and safety implications. The neighbour can't access their drive as a result of this shattered manhole.
It looks like it may be a soakaway for water, and the chamber and pipe has been damaged, and there's concern the water won't be able to drain away. On Friday we're due a lot of rain and there's concern water won't be able to drain anywhere. Bristol Water has been out to check, and it's not their manhole cover, so it looks like it might be B&NES. Please could you take a look and fix the problem?
