Many pavements in Purlewent Drive, including outside no 45 (illustrated), are very rough and uneven, and therefore unsafe, in particular for mobility-scooter users, who often have to resort to going onto the road. Please can these be improved ... as soon as resources allow. Thank you.

  • Dear Ruth. Thank you for reporting this issue. I reported the issue of the pavements around Purlewent Drive a number of months ago, attaching many photos, and explaining that it was a larger issue than a single pothole, with the pavement is having essentially deteriorated to a point beyond return. Unfortunately, that report seems to have disappeared from fix my street without action , at least as far as I can see. Also unfortunate is that the highway inspector came today but only looked at a single pothole in the strip you photographed, without inspecting any other element of Purlewent Drive. I fear therefore that we will see a small circle of time on that section and nothing else. I would be grateful if you could keep pushing this issue, as the pavements really have got to appoint where they just are not suitable for buggies or wheelchairs.
