Collapsed and broken footpath

Reported via desktop in the Trip hazard/uneven surface category anonymously at 13:02, Thu 20 January 2022

Sent to Lincolnshire County Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 414868.

The footpath from the village of Manthorpe to the bridge is unsafe and has been for over 5 years now. It is broken and drops at a steep angle towards the hedgerow. Recently, my daughter was lucky that her child was not injured when pushing him in a buggy along the path. She was unable to control the buggy as it veered off the footpath into the ditch beside the path. Luckily, I was with her and managed to grab the front of the buggy before anything serious happened. This is the only path from Manthorpe to the bus stop on the A6121 and is in constant use by residents.

  • We're sending you this message to let you know that we've assessed the footway condition and at this time it does not require urgent repair. However we have identified this location for a larger scale improvement scheme. At this stage we are unable to give specific dates for this or definitely commit to the scheme because we prioritise these schemes based on condition compared with the rest of the County footway network and the resources available to us each year. We will continue to monitor this location as part of our routine inspections of the highway in the meantime. Thank you for reporting this matter.
