Reported multiple times on here, by different people, going back over a year. Not fixed. See photo - this is an indentation across the width of the road, outside 52 Victoria Rd, leading right across to the entrance if the garage opposite. Every time a bus hits this, all of the houses shake. It is damaging our houses.
