Description
Tis is a large gaping hole where the pipe runs from under the blacktkop road way from one side to the other and has been severely bent by traffic cutting too close to make a right turn on E.Weyburn from Abbey heading to Chippenham Parkway. This hole is very dangerous and is about 12 inches from the right side of the roadway and vehicles get too close and are unable to see the hole and are in danger of their vehicle dropping into the hole and causing serious injury. I have reported before buy to no avail. It is of great danger to public vehicles turning at the corner. The pipe under the roadway at the intersection needs needs extending with a cement drain to extend the pipE... The mail carrier almost turn over often because the area is very close to the side of the roadway and cannot be seen..... DANGEROUS.... PLEASE HELP
