Dropped kerbs have now been installed each side of this entrance way which now means that people who use a wheelchair can cross 🙌

Would have preferred a continuous pavement, but will take the win!

A small raised table at the junction makes the road surface level with the pavement (with tactile paving) making it easier for 🧑‍🦽users to cross this junction 🙌

Thank you @GowmanAJ & @MarkinDowgate for taking this up with @Squarehighways

The lack of suitable dropped kerbs here makes it difficult or even impossible for people who use wheelchairs to cross the road.

Overgrown vegetation like this becomes a barrier for some people by blocking the pavement

@wfcouncil your online reporting tool isn’t working so please can this be flagged & the vegetation cut back

@InclusiveBuild @THLivingStreets @BetterStreetsTH Very valid question!

When I’ve submitted reports covering a whole ward to some councils, they weren’t even aware of any issues.

Others have some record, but no funding allocated to resolve anything…
