Guest   #2 Posted June 13, 2014 Are the pavements finished? maybe its the recent heat that's having an effect. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Ms Macbeth   75 #3 Posted June 13, 2014 Thoresby Road is exactly the same but I don't believe they have been completed. Work is being carried out in Walkley Lane at present, perhaps Amey intend to do all the final layers together? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

WallBuilder   10 #6 Posted June 13, 2014 My road had the pavements base course put down about a month ago and it was a little sticky for a day or so which meant walking on the road itself was preferable. If anyone trips over whilst the work is only part done then they're obviously not being very careful, I have a friend who is completely blind and they seem to manage okay although a bit more care may be neded Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

broncolives   10 #8 Posted June 13, 2014 Are the pavements finished? maybe its the recent heat that's having an effect.  Manvers and Thoresby are very lucky to get work done. Take a look at Morley St still old stone pavements. Trip hazards the full length of the road. Promised new pavements by the mid 1980s still not done. The only through route on that side of Walkley Lane and it has heavy foot traffic due to Rivelin school. The date for renewal 2016. You guy's have nothing to complain about.

sheffandy   33 #11 Posted June 14, 2014 Why won't they do Morley street?its terrible.i see everyday a child falling on them.also very slippery in winter!  For some reason it in the next phase of works (2016). I emailed the council last year about the horrible flag stones and the amount of foot traffic Morley St carries, also the road surface is falling to pieces in some places.  They replied and did confirm we are on the 2016 list.
