The pavement is cracked and lifted. I see lots of people trip over it when walking past, i have tripped numerous times in the dark, my toddler trips over it nearly every day. A mobility scooter user who lives down Park Avenue can’t go over it, they have to drive in the grass which then gets torn up and is blocked by a dog poo bin. Oprah’s cant go over it either. Reported 18 months ago and closed as apparently not a risk when it’s clearly a tripping hazard??
