Lose Drain Cover

Reported via mobile in the Potholes and Surface Problems category anonymously at 08:44, Thursday 26 February 2026

Sent to Merton Council less than a minute later. Council ref: SRQ-1274277-H0Z2M1.

There is a lose drain cover on Bushey Road which makes a very loud noise every time a car drives past .This happens every 2-3 seconds when there is traffic .The constant loud banging noise causes me sleepless nights and disruption and it poses a safety risk too .This has been going on for a couple of weeks and although neighbours reported it lighting has been done to repair it .
