There is small dangerous section of pavement where there is a raised rectangular cast iron manhole cover which is a trip hazard

My mother (68yrs old) almost fell over this when walking the dog due to tripping on the exposed raised edge.

Please can the pavement be resurfaced in this area to ensure that it is level with the manhole cover to remove the trip hazard
