Corroded Bus Stop Post – Northbound Lambourn Road Stop, Chandag Road, Keynsham

This report concerns the severe corrosion and structural integrity of the bus stop post located at the northbound Lambourn Road stop on Chandag Road, Keynsham. The base of the metal post exhibits extensive rust and material loss, as illustrated in the provided images. There are large sections where the metal has completely rusted through, creating significant voids and compromising the structural stability of the post. This level of corrosion raises concerns about: Public Safety: The post may be at risk of falling, especially during high winds or if accidentally struck, posing a direct danger to pedestrians and waiting passengers. Structural Integrity: The visible damage indicates a high degree of degradation at the critical ground-level point. I request that B&NES Highways or the relevant department (e.g., Public Transport/Street Furniture) urgently inspect this bus stop post to assess its safety and arrange for its immediate repair or replacement before it fails. The current condition presents a clear hazard.
