Reporting road or pavement problems to the Council

After a winter of high winds though little snow, you might be wondering how best to go about reporting problems with roads and pavements in and around the village.

The good news is that in this digital age it really couldn’t be any easier to report problems to the Council. Here’s one method…

Fixmystreet.com is a fantastic initiative from the mySociety team, which in turn is a charitable initiative from the UK Citizens Online Democracy. All you need to do in order to report a local issue is enter your postcode, supply (optional) contact details, upload a picture if you have one, then just hit send. It really couldn’t be much simpler or user friendly.

You then receive a confirmation email with a link from the website, click the link to confirm and you’re done. Your local council has now been alerted courtesy of Fixmystreet.com.

Below you can see an example of a submitted problem on the Fixmystreet.com website.

    Just wanted to say that this was repaired just days after being reported to the Council.
