Outside 8 Wilton crescent - manhole cover collapsed
Reported via mobile in the Faulty Manhole Cover on a Path or Pavement category anonymously at 09:24, Sun 14 December 2025
Sent to Merton Council less than a minute later. Council ref: SRQ-1266486-Q4S5Y9.
Where a tree has been removed a van has driven onto the path and broken manhole cover. It was a Waitrose van but I didn’t get number plate. The pavement looks like will collapse. A new tree needs planting to protect it
