It's the list of road maintenance and other capital projects scheduled for the area
Check whether your road is listed on the project list and if it's not make sure to report it to the council.
The best way to report a road or pavement problem is online at the Fix My Street website.
FixMyStreet is a site to help people report, view, or discuss local problems they’ve found to their local council by simply locating them on a map. It launched in early February 2007.
Sure. Graffiti, unlit lampposts, abandoned beds, broken glass on a cycle path; anything like that that could be usefully reported to your council to be fixed.
After entering a postcode or location, you are presented with a map of that area. You can view problems already reported in that area, or report ones of your own simply by clicking on the map at the location of the problem.
They are reported to the council by email. The council can then resolve the problem the way they normally would. Alternatively, you can discuss the problem on the website with others, and then together lobby the council to fix it, or fix it directly yourselves.
Well, firstly that others can see your report, and they can add weight to it. You can also post photographs of the problem. It helps us as councillors to chase up problems that are just not being dealt with quickly enough.
However, if you prefer to use Trafford Council's Reporting Page, just follow this link.
