Absolutely ridiculous, I pulled out of Waltham crescent last night and nearly went straight into another car coming into Portland drive because they've built the corner of the road up and u have to pull into the middle of the road to get round it !!!

Why can't the money of been spent on better things for the estate eg better play areas for the kids, more dog poo bins etc the things that have been done are horrendous and dangerous, buses having to mount kerbs in frensham and another on a blind sport pointless waste of money!!

Work is rough, Kids are using as playground, frensham drive is to tight, sherbourne is on blond bend, portland drive to tight and old bus bit all overgrown. Also why they got someone to paint all the tarmac without repairing cracks is beyond me.

Dangerous, did contact the council during the works and raised concerns, asked them to send someone out to check what they were doing regarding the blind bend! The buses have to stop there too it's a bizarre thing to do! Accident waiting to happen!

I have lived in my street for 30 years and since this traffic calming thing was put in I have never seen so many near misses of accidents yet prior to this there was hardly any.

What a disaster. Increases risk rather than safety.

When is grass going to be planted as weeds are now 2ft high at the bus stop? A real eyesore.
