Resurface the pavements on Hunter Avenue, Westbourne Crescent, Leigh Avenue and Whitehouse Crescent
Dear Mr Bethall
I refer to the petition , signed by local residents requesting the resurfacing of pavements for Hunter Avenue , Westbourne Crescent , Leigh Avenue and Whitehouse Crescent , Burntwood . I can advise you that receipt of the petition will be reported to Cllr Mark Deaville , Cabinet Member for Commercial ( including Highways & Transport ) .
Thank you for bringing the condition of these footways to the attention of the Council . The Council has assessed the condition of the footways in question and has concluded that any future preventative treatment would require the footways to be re-constructed rather than to be slurry sealed . The footways are in the forward programme for structural maintenance treatment however there is no defined timescale for these works at present . Preventative works on these footways will be carried out when there is sufficient funding available and they will be prioritised against other footways around the county that also require treatment .
If there are any specific defects on the footways that you are concerned about then please report them via the Staffordshire County Council website , the MyStaffs app or via the contact centre on 0300 111 8000 . An Inspector will then visit the site to assess the defect and put on works for reactive repairs as necessary .
I appreciate this may not be the response you were seeking but I trust it clarifies the Council ’s position on this matter .
Yours sincerely
Amanda Felton
Executive Support Officer
