12 Calonne Rd, Kerb drops causing cars to bottom out

Reported via desktop in the Potholes and Surface Problems category anonymously at 12:35, Thursday 2 April 2026

Sent to Merton Council less than a minute later. Council ref: SRQ-1278271-G0W0Q2.

There is a significant dip in the kerb/road gully, which causes the front spoiler/bumper unit of cars to scrape against the road when we enter or exit the property. This problem is worsening and is causing damage to the front of our and our visitors' cars. There are visible scape marks on the tarmac.

Please note that our next door neighbours (Thai Temple)seem to have had a similar issue, and they have had the gap filled with tarmac, which has effectively resolved the problem for them. Please can the same solution be applied outside our property to prevent further damage to our vehicles and the road and pavement surfaces?
