    This is really DANGEROUS for us cyclists as exactly in the line of travel and with the sharp edge of manhole facing the front wheel.

    I can't believe it's now 3 weeks since it was first reported.

    Must not wait till someone is killed or seriously injured.

  • This pothole above manhole outside 32 Cumnor Hill is "in a different league" of danger, principally to cyclists, and so needs attention sooner than others reported. Beware! My concern about the delay has led me to mark it in yellow chalk. John Guillebaud
