During the past 7 days, Thames Water contractors have been conducting repairs in Merton Road, opposite Birch Road, and whilst doing so damaged a section of road surface outside the area they excavated.

They have left the site without reinstating the road to the condition it was in when they arrived. The three photographs accompanying this report evidence this.

The damaged road surface will inevitably deteriorated further, most likely into a pothole, that will need to be repaired eventually.

Thames Water or its contractors should be required to repair the damage.
