Vehicular damage to verge almost reaching water meter cover
Reported in the Manhole/drain cover on pavement/verge category anonymously at 11:03, Mon 15 June 2020
Sent to Lincolnshire County Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 372421.
The verge in front of our house used to be at least 2 feet wider than it is now but has been worn away by heavy vehicles. When the bin lorry reversed up last Thursday it took another slice off as you can see in the photos, leaving only about 6-8 inches between the road and the water meter stop valve cover. Would it be possible to put a low curb along the verge to prevent further damage to both the verge and the meter cover please?
