Outside gate of Upper Wood End Farm on Triangle
Reported via desktop in the Road Surface category anonymously at 14:44, Monday 16 February 2026
Sent to Central Bedfordshire Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 436853.
There are two related problems: 1) walkers accessing entrance to Wood End Forest of Marston Value repeatedly park on or by the triangle and this blocks and disrupts farm traffic coming in and out of Lower and Upper Wood End Farms; (2) The road around the triangle and near the entrance has been massively damaged. Walkers park further away from the side of the road to avoid getting muddy and this exacerbates problem (1).
