Street problems reported here
Open reports from residents, made through FixMyStreet. “Near” means the nearest listed street to the point the reporter marked, not an address they gave. Reports that describe people, such as a tent or someone sleeping rough, are left out (the rule).
All street problems- Traffic signal fault
“The traffic lights on sedlescombe road south, at the crossroads of springfield road and gillsmans hill, tn38 0tj. These lights stay red for extended periods (several minutes) while no traffic is flowing through the junction from either gillsmans hill nor springfield road. and no pedestrians either. This has been a persistent problem ever since there were temporary lights here a couple of weeks ago.”
