Loud Manhole Cover Loose - Still not Fixed
Reported via desktop in the Manhole Cover - Damaged (rocking or noisy) category anonymously at 22:58, Tuesday 3 September 2024
Sent to TfL less than a minute later. TfL ref: FMS6433314.
The noise pollution from the loud manhole cover which has been reported for months is unbearable - it is 24/7 severe noise.
It has now also nearly caused multiple accidents with cyclists - I have seen them swerve to avoid it, and it’s positioning means they are having to serve on one of the busiest roads directly into speeding traffic. Somebody will end up dying as a result of this before TFL/whatever contractor is responsible bothers to fix this.
