Very dangerous loose man hole cover

Reported via desktop in the Manhole Cover - Damaged (rocking or noisy) category anonymously at 14:21, Tue 7 September 2021

Sent to TfL less than a minute later. TfL ref: FMS2985514.

Dear Sirs

I would like to report a very dangerous loose man hole cover on the bus lane outside 54 Stoke Newington Road (the A10) road in Hackney. It is situated in the bus lane and every time a bus or lorry goes over it it makes a very loud crashing noise.

This is obviously dangerous to road users and pedestrians and it is also keeping me and my family awake at night.

Can someone please arrange for it to be inspected and repaired ASAP?

Thank you
