Very very noisy manhole cover, the concrete around the outside of it seems to make a crashing noise whenever anything drives over it. Wakes us up most nights. Please fix it! It’s been almost a year of terrible noise. It’s just outside our door 197a new cross road.

  • This has not been fixed! I received a message to say it had been fixed but it has not been touched. It is very loud and waking our house hold up at night! I spoke to people who came to look at it but they parked in front of it so they could not hear how awful and loud it is when buses hit it. Please can this be fixed.

  • Incredibly loud, this has been reported but nothing has been done. It’s on the red route in front of our building 197a new cross road. It is so loud it wakes us up regularly at night. It crashes loudly whenever a bus goes over it. Please can this be fixed.
