The road was resurfaced a few years ago and the manhole covers replaced with a low grade cover. These were replaced after it was agreed that they were failing because of the specs being too low. Many of the replacements failed because the packing was not adequate.theywere then replaced with a Pacopatch because of the high levels of traffic. They have worked and are sound. This was not replaced/repacked but is now failing.It is rocking more and more.The surrounds are starting to collapse like the others.The MHC is straight outside houses which open onto the path..disturbing the occupants sleep.

Sent to Lincolnshire County Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 384956.
The MHC surround is starting to collapse like the ones did before. The packing is not sufficient to cope with the increased level of traffic over it. The materials around the frame are moving now whenever a vehicle passes over it.possibly the frame is distorted now. A temporary weld fix might temporarily solve the issue for the inhabitants.

There are now two MHC detioriorating sufficiently to cause consistent day and intermittent night time disturbance. Much louder at night as traffic tends to travel much faster and consequently more energy( square relationship) per vehicle.
