Your FAQ

Question: What steps can I take to help the council to maintain and improve pavements/footways on the Island?

Answer: *Report dangerous defects on the road and pavements by completing our online Defect Report system (see link below).
*Please let us know of any locations where you think low crossings may be helpful.
*Please let us know if your unhappy about the standards of our contractors work.
*Please do not park on the pavement/footway; this is a danger to the blind and partially sighted pedestrians.
*When we notify you of work we are about to carry out in front of your property, please inform us of any special access requirement you may need, such as for wheelchairs or deliveries.
