Heavy damage to traffic island.
Reported via desktop in the Bollards or railings category by C Hurworth at 21:38, Thu 26 May 2022
Sent to Buckinghamshire Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 3554848.
Traffic island for the sake of clarity which is located outside properties 192/194 Hatters lane has got the steel lighting pole smashed down at angle of approx 10 degrees from horizontal projecting towards oncoming traffic. It is dangerous at the moment and needs cutting off flush with the base as a temporary safety measure before replacement. It is unlit and has not got any safety cones around it and it appears from the debris that vehicles have collided with it This has been the case for at least three months. I reported this yesterday ref 40193596 and I have had a reply that the case is closed??
