Lymington Gardents driveways blocked by roadworks

Reported via desktop in the Surrey County Council roadworks category anonymously at 09:39, Tuesday 8 October 2024

Sent to Surrey County Council less than a minute later.

There are pavement works going on at Walsingham Gardens (adjacent to Lymington Gardens) and all the equipment has been left on the road opposite the driveways of 4 houses on Lymington Gardens. Entering and exiting the drive is almost impossible, resulting in us having to drive over the curb, causing damage to our cars. Rubble is also being dumped into the area and it is encroaching closer and closer to the houses. Further to that Lymington Gardens is often completely blocked. Signs have been put up on either side of my drive saying 'temporary blockage 15 minutes delay'. Lorries and diggers are often stationary over our drive for well over 15 mintues making access completely impossible. We need constant access to the drive throughout the day. And, quite frankly, it is an eyesore.

We were given no prior notice of this arrangement and no one has contacted us since.

The works serve no benefit to Lymington Gardens and I'm at a loss as to why this location has been chosen to dump equipment and waste.

I'd like a full explanation of why this site was chosen, why we were not given any notice, and how long you expect this to continue for. I sent an email regarding this 2 weeks ago and have had no response.
