The footpath between Crane Close and Thorold Avenue

Reported via mobile in the Trip hazard/uneven surface category anonymously at 19:46, Sat 22 March 2025

Sent to Lincolnshire County Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 2839225.

This can be seen on the video. The surface of the path is in a very poor condition and runs along the front of the pensioners bungalows where many residents are unsteady on their feet. During wet weather it is extremely dangerous as the potholes cannot be seen easily and the poor lighting only exacerbates the situation in darkness. The path has been poor for quite a few years and is only getting worse as time goes by.

  • I'm am confused as the surveyors have only marked a short section of the path with the yellow spray. It is the whole of the path from Crane Close to Thorold Avenue along the front of the bungalows tha requires relaying. It is highly dangerous especially for people who use walking sticks and frames. I myself have cockled over and fallen several times.
