Sent to Lincolnshire County Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 404834.
This incident was reported under reference number 404177. This incident has been reported as completed today, however, after checking the site, the incorrect manhole has been repaired! The repaired manhole had a small hole adjacent to the metal cover, it did not rock with traffic passing over the top and did not produce a load noise. Hence I submit a new report: The unit is no longer secure and has been such for over a month. It is on East Street, on the easterly carriageway. It’s near where Recreational Ground Road meets East Street. It rocks as vehicles transit over the top. This rocking produces a loud clanking noise. The rocking motion is getting worse and a hole in the tarmac has appeared down one side of the unit. One used to be able to add videos to this site but only photos now. A video would really highlight the problem well to you.
