Sent to Central Bedfordshire Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 421711.
Recent BT & Virgin cabling carried out across the road created a ridge which is not filled flashing with the road. This has a resulted in a bump. When bigger vehicles drive over it , ie(buses) the vibration is transfered into the house & i have cracks occuring in my house as a result. Over 6mths has been happening.

The defect does currently not have a high enough risk and need, to justify a repair. I will continue to monitor this in the future.
Update on your report:After inspecting the reported issue, our officers have determined that this doesn't currently qualify as a priority for repair. We will continue to monitor the defect during future inspections and carry out works should it meet our intervention levels in future.
With over 1,400km of road to maintain across Central Bedfordshire, we have to prioritise the work we do as detailed in our Network Maintenance Management Plan (NMMP), which can be viewed on the following page of our website https://www.centralbedfordshire.gov.uk/ info/ 55/ transport_roads_and_parking/ 592/ roads_strategies
