Leicester - Westcotes Ward

There is an escalating problem with weeds growing and spreading all along the tow path from the Rally past the Rail bridge alongside the King Power. Prolific weed growth on walls/steps and tow path including the Iron footbridge by the rowing club, the weed with purple cones is spreading and taking hold on steps/brickwork and other places. Once this has taken hold the trunk and roots will continue to grow and cause damage to paving/brickwork stairways. Resulting in dangerous paths/steps and costly repair!-Western Boulevard, Leicester, UK

The rubbish from the outdoor gym behind Tescos is becoming a nuisance and spilling into the nearby properties. There is also someone living rough which I don't believe it helping the issue. Please can someone clean the edges of the gym near the railings.-Bede Island, Leicester, UK

Photo taken at 12:54 27 Aug 2025. Deliveroo driver illegally parked on double red line and partially obstructing the cycle lane. He is not collecting an order - he has parked there to sit down and take a break as can be seen in the photo. White car on left also partially parked in loading bay and obstructing a lane of traffic on an A road. This happens all day, every single day and so far the only response is that you will "monitor the situation." -138 London Road, Leicester, LE2 1EB

Dear Sir/Madam, I am a resident of Harrison Road, and one of my children is studying at Cathering Junior School. I have noticed a recurring problem and feel it is important to bring it to your attention, as it may lead to accidents involving the children. Many parents are stopping their cars in the restricted area directly in front of the school gate, including on the double yellow lines and traffic zigzag markings. This not only causes heavy traffic congestion but also creates serious safety risks for children crossing the road. It also delays other students from reaching school on time. I have video evidence available if required. I kindly request that the council take immediate action against drivers who stop their vehicles in the restricted area in front of the school when dropping off their children-Brandon Street, Leicester, UK
