Not fixed at all

Reported via desktop in the Road Markings - Worn/Faded category anonymously at 09:59, Friday 17 May 2024

Sent to North Northamptonshire Council less than a minute later. ref: 5985434.

I can't actually believe that over 4 years and you STILL haven't manged to paint some lines. Why has it been marked as fixed and closed on this report? https://www.fixmystreet.com/ report/ 4286615

As you can quite clearly see from the photos the white lines HAVEN'T been painted. So it's not been "fixed" at all. Someone has painted the cycle and foot crossings and around 20 yards of white lines at the mini roundabout. But the massive section that needed painting hasn't been touched. One has to wonder just how stupid the people are that go out to do work and can't even do a simple job like painting some white lines. Over FOUR YEARS. Council and Highways aren't fit for purpose.

  • Just to make it clear what you considered "fixed" the blue arrows indicate what has been painted. Right next to the areas with red lines, denoting what they apparently couldn't see needed doing. Yet claim as "fixed".

  • Despite supplying photos of how they haven't "fixed" this, they still haven't bothered. Happy to come along and hold your hand if you need it spelling out like one would to a child.

  • Even the simple tasks take an age. Years to paint some road markings, despite having been out and painted "some" of the solid white lines, pedestrian and bike crossings. Nobody had the intelligence to paint all the solid white lines.

  • Quelle surprise! They haven't been done. Utterly pathetic. Should have your contract cancelled, the roads are a disgrace and even a bit of painting of lines can't be done.

  • I'll keep it simple. PAINT. THE. LINES.

  • It's been over 4 years, I can assure you that in those years, the road has been bone dry for a significant number of days when the work could have been carried out. Very poor excuse.
