Leafs on the pavement
Reported in the Obstruction on a Road or Pavement category anonymously at 07:34, Sat 13 December 2025
Sent to Merton Council less than a minute later. Council ref: SRQ-1266420-J7Z3Q4.
I would like to report a safety concern regarding the main route used by residents to access the park. When wet, this surface becomes extremely slippery and poses a significant risk to pedestrians, including children and elderly residents.
As this is a primary access route to the park, I kindly request that the council investigate the issue and consider appropriate remedial action to improve safety.
