Leicester - Westcotes

Description

Hi, we have chronic issues of poor parking on our cul de sac mostly by people who park and leave to town - it is a very thin street and some people park on both sides, on the pavement and also blocking the road in such a way that no emergency or service vehicles can get through - I have attached some photos to illustrate - it is worse on match days but recently even during working days - people going off to work after parking poorly - 2 days ago I had a skip scheduled to come and take away waste form my house further down the street but it could not get through and sometimes it is very hard to squeeze through even with a normal vehicle. Unfortunately as is is a cul de sac, there are no restrictions placed ; and in an area surrounded by permit parking we are not a permit parking street making us even more vulnerable - neighbours have reported that if they do ever confront the people parking here they are faced with aggression. I feel either there should be enforceable restrictions put in place - permit parking, residents only etc. or road markings made to mark how much space a fire engine would need to get through; or potentially barring one side of the street for parking - it is mostly an issue in the mid section of our street

A black bin does NOT belong to me. My original bin was stolen over three years ago and replaced by the council.

Someone has filled this old bin with waste and left it outside my property. The collection crew does not empty it.

I am not responsible for this bin or its contents.-11 Pitchens Close, Leicester, LE4 1AG

I regularly cycle down watermead way however the hedges and bushes are growing at a rapid rate causing me to often swerve to avoid. They have overgrown into the cycle lane and over the double lines .This is extremely dangerous, particularly on a 50mph road-85 Oakland Avenue, Leicester, LE4 7SG

I was coming down church gate on my bike from the clock tower. When approaching the junction there are no markings to indicate who should give way.

With the hill I had built up some speed and then had to break quite suddenly as a van shot out of Mansfield street onto St Peter’s Lane.

Worth reviewing road markings around here if this is intended as a cycling route-54 Church Gate, Leicester, LE1 4AJ
