Bricknell Avenue road surfaces

John Fareham and John Abbott are continuing to work with local residents and officers to resolve issues with the state of Bricknell Avenue road surfaces. We have often drawn officers’ attention to potholes on Bricknell Avenue and to other surface irregularities which have caused vibration in neighbouring properties, and action has been taken on these. However, our attention has also been drawn to the level of HGV traffic on Bricknell Avenue in the early hours of the morning. This may be sufficient to produce movements in the subsoil basis which may cure themselves in time but which mean that one house may be affected and another not. We will, however, in the belief that the proximate cause of most vibrations is surface irregularities, continue to work with residents to have such flaws in the carriageway dealt with.
