'It's frightening, it really is'
A resident on a pothole-ridden road says HGVs and buses bouncing up and down his street are rattling his house to bits - leading to a huge crack in his wall.
And Lee says his efforts to ask the council for help have only resulted in patch repairs. And he is now desperately asking for the problem to be properly addressed before the worst happens.Lee has lived in the house since 1993 and says the state of the road and traffic conditions have got much worse in that time. He has made efforts to ask for help from the council and contacted Lancashire Constabulary over problems with cars speeding down the road but was left frustrated with the response.
Lee regularly works from home in his role as a compliance analyst and from his office in the loft, he says he can feel the house shaking when heavy vehicles go past his house, outside which is a particularly badly damaged stretch of road. "When the HGVs go over, it's quite frightening really," he said.
And outside of rush hour, Lee says an extra problem is caused by cars failing to stick to the 30mph limit. He says there are regular crashes along the road as a result of speeding drivers, including one house which has been hit multiple times and another where a car crashed into an external gas pipe.
According to Lee, efforts to address the speeding problem have not progressed because "the police say it's the council's responsibility, the council say it's the police's". "You get fed up but the same time you know something needs doing," he added.
