  • Investigation: Completed (Defect Found), Defect Repair: Not Started - Thank you for your enquiry. A qualified Highways Inspector has assessed the location and in accordance with the WNC Highways Inspection Manual, a pre-emptive defect has been raised. This means that the location does not currently meet West Northamptonshire Council's criteria as an urgent safety defect. However, the repair will be scheduled to be completed alongside other maintenance works in the local vicinity. We will continue to monitor the condition as part of our routine highway inspection schedule. Should you notice the defect worsening, please inform us via an update to your existing enquiry.

  • This problem.has been reported before, by someone else, and nothing has been done about it. I have the same response, nothing will be done about it. I will wait for someone to fall and break a limb, and I will give them the CCTV so that they can take the matter to court.

  • Of course they are getting worse! and if they get to it eventually, maybe they can bother to paint some parking bays too, as people seem to be unable to park unless they see paint on the pavement. thank you.
