[Image taken 6.2.23] St Andrewgate, York. The space has invited people to dump rubbish here. Doesn't make this location look good or feel safe. Including to leave a cycle right next to. Could it be marked with a symbol of a cargo or family ... [more]

[Image taken 6.2.23] St Andrewgate close to the junction with Colliergate, York. Badly sited rack. Too close to everything. So the owner of this cycle has had to secure it at an angle. It's not supported as it should be rather it's wedged. ... [more]

[Image taken 5.2.23] De Grey Rooms, St Leonard’s Place, York. I don't know what the "less haste" means. I think they could have fewer words and more images... Of what's behind the hoardings, what's planned, the timeline and a before and ( ... [more]

190854 This Pavement is the only safe pedestrian access from Locking village onto A371 the pavement surface is in need of urgent repair, it is broken and uneven, slippy in places, its badly overgrown with vegetation and overhanging trees, there are no street lights. Even in the day light it feels unsafe.
The pavement needs resurfacing, vegetation cut back and dead trees taken down, solar street lighting installed.- 190853 I live just above this road, and work from home so look out onto it every day. It's used constantly by dog walkers, families (going to school) and horse riders. Cars do not stick to the speed limit, especially at peak times. It's very narrow, with sections without a pavement. The path/steps from the houses have no pavement on their side, so have to cross over with limited visibility at points. I have young children, and I'm worried there will be an accident one day. I've had arguments with motorists who are clearly going too fast given the hazards this road presents along it's full length. If this road was in Bristol, it would absolutely be 20mph it's full length. It needs to be made 20mph to protect pedestrians and other road users
- 190852 Cars race through here 20 mphis needed
- 190851 20mph and speed bumps need to be in place
- 190850 20mph and speed bumps to slow traffic.
- 190849 There needs to be a wider pavement so that pedestrians don’t need to walk in the road almost all down high st.
- 190847 Traffic travelling too quickly
- 190846 Widen pavement for pedestrians
- 190845 The pavement is narrow and difficultly fit pram and child side by side
- 190838 Needs a 20 mph limit as Road is very narrow and is subject to speeding vehicles - there is no pavement
- 190835 Stoney Steep is a key and well used walkway with many public footpaths linking to it. However, it doesn't link to other footpaths on the other side of the B3128 or to any of the bus stops. Indeed the bus stop by Noahs Ark Zoo farm is pretty much inaccessible to residents as there are no safe pavements.
- 190834 Add a safe pedestrian crossing to allow people to cross between the estate and the vet school.
