Investigating
Pavement need to be cleared
Sent to Oxfordshire County Council less than a minute later
This stretch of pavement is becoming dangerous to walk along, it is an overgrown area and has made the path really narrow.
Council ref: ENQ241019257

Thank you for your enquiry. This issue has been passed onto the relevant team for investigation.
-
This stretch of pavement is getting worse and worse! It is now completely blocked with leaf-sludge -- please can we have it cleaned so that pedestrians are not forced into the road.
-
It’s still very bad; a neighbour witnessed an elderly gentleman fall over this weekend. Please fix this! Thanks

The area is now covered with very slippery leaves. I have heard of two people slipping and falling already. Please remove leaf residue ASAP.
This is an annual autumnal H&S risk, and I do understand why fallen leaves are not removed as standard practice. Please add this to the street and pavement cleaning routine for November.
-
Please can this be sorted urgently. If anyone falls on this path they will be falling onto a very busy road. There are no street lights so cars will not see people falling.
-
This is a major health risk and was originally flagged back in October. It is not acceptable as several people have reported they have slipped or fallen into the path of oncoming traffic. The bushes need to be cut back and the fallen, wet leaves removed please.

Clearing the pavements of leaves is (apparently) the responsibility of South Oxford District Council. So I have reported this set of problems to them, as a "Street Cleaning" problem.
When it is clear, then OCC perhaps can assess whether there is any structural repair needed.
