The residents of Gorse Hill ward struggle to get about on foot because the pavements in the ward are in a shocking state. This affects everyone, but especially the elderly, infirm, young children, parents and carers with pushchairs and wheelchair users. They feel that their area is neglected.

We ask Worcestershire County Council to bring the pavements up to a decent standard of repair as soon as possible.

Please sign only if you live in Worcester, UK.

We will hand this petition to Worcestershire County Council Highways department. Worcestershire County Council is bound by data protection regulations.

I was back out on the street today and watched an elderly neighbor struggle to navigate the cracks near the shops. This constant danger makes our neighborhood feel invisible to those who have the power to fix it.

Seeing so many of my neighbors speak up about these broken streets is truly moving. It proves that we all share the same struggle of just trying to navigate our own community safely.

The pavements are terrible were I live , I Tripped on one of these a few weeks ago and fell over and hurt my knee which was really painful , my friend actually fell and broke her arm and she put a claim in to the county council , so yes they need to sort the paths out the sooner the better

Please improve the crumbling curb stones gutters and pavements in Coniston Close. They are really bad.

As an "older and disabled person", I do find the state of pavements in many of the non-city-centre areas a real problem.

Hearing senior people tripping up is enough to get people working.

The pavement on Tolladine Road from Amblesdie Drive requires improvement.

The residents in Horse Hill area probably walk more than most. They live within walking distance of the city centre, and many don't have cars.
