Sent to Northamptonshire Highways less than a minute later. ref: 2697291.
LOCATION - outside 46 Chacombe Road, Middleton Cheney. OX17 2QU. The drain cover is sticking into the roadway at footpath height so a vehicle could smash a wheel and / or have a nasty accident. (N.B. school bus route and children walking to two schools). Equally a pedestrian could easily fall into the exposed drain and be seriously hurt especially when dark. This is a recurring problem with this drain (which I reported and was temporarily fixed a few weeks ago) which has a broken lug. REQUIRES URGENT ACTION,
