I usually post these on the Barton & Tredworth Proboard, but as our councils seem to ignore a lot of these reports, better to keep it in politics, and close to hand...

Two deep holes (basement illumination?) by wall of New Olympus Theatre, Blenheim Road
Reported in the Pavements/footpaths category by Joe Kilker at 13:55 today
These two holes have been left uncovered for months, except when two burnt-out mattresses were propped against the wall over them. Now the mattress have been removed but the holes ignored again, even though a steel barrier was installed just feet away, a week ago. I expect a further long delay before the problem is dealt with.
I received this response by email today, which makes a change:
