Near 135 Ethel Road, Leicester, LE5 5WB

Leicester - Spinney Hills Ward

There is litter strewn across Ethel Rd on both sides. There are no litter pickers. The mess is attracting vermin in what once used to be a very clean area. The bushes along Ethel Road and Goals ideally need to be removed as they are a home for rats. It is very close to schools so children and regularly walking in this area. This requires urgent attention as it seems to be getting worse and worse.-135 Ethel Road, Leicester, LE5 5WB

Bin wars on Kimberley road!! Number 155 raising the stakes by putting 2 bins on the road in competition to Number 170 putting one. When will this madness end? Surely the council can issue fines for this illegal behaviour and save themselves from bankruptcy. Daily fines for these 2 household would generate serious revenue in just 1 week. -155 Kimberley Road, Leicester, LE2 1LP

Not sure which category to put this under as your web page says it’s a City Warden issue on environmental grounds - this resident is using his front drive as a commercial activity storage and is causing the street and area to look untidy and unappealing - loads of broken hot tubs stored on front of street view - is this acceptable?-11 Kincraig Road, Leicester, LE4 7YB

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 -7 Westleigh Avenue, Leicester, LE3 0HG

Woodgate Residents Association is reporting this on behalf of a resident of Rugby Street.
Nos 6 and 8 Rugby Street are consistently leaving out their FULL wheelie bins all week. They are often full of dirty nappies which fall on the ground and are left there. The smell is awful and is a health hazard. Please can this be dealt with.
Also on the other side of the street there is always rubbish fly tipped outside the homes along with wheelie bins. As a condition of planning, these properties had to have bin storage. Can these also be dealt with? Thankyou.-2 Rugby Street, Leicester, LE3 5FF

Leicester city council when will you issue fines and penalty notices for this illegal behaviour? Another day and another example of 170 leaving their bin on the road. Enough is enough - have some pride in the city and stop this behaviour from selfish residents.-170 Kimberley Road, Leicester, LE2 1LH

This driver just jumped the kurb and drove right in front of me then backed up!!!!! Just to run into 19-25 friar lane. He even had a Key fob so I bet he does it all the time. He literally didn't even consider pedestrians!

That was super dangerous, and illegal

Please advise what is done with this information or how I am meant to report it so someone actually takes action -17 Friar Lane, Leicester, LE1 5RB

Pulling out of junctions with various cars parked on pavements is getting risky.

When can any action be taken regarding repeat offenders parking on pavements like it's their own car park.
