    Although the pothole was fixed, the noisy manhole cover is now even worse. It is EXTREMELY loud when cars drive over it and wakes us up at night. The cover needs fixing please, as it is clearly loose or lopsided.

    Please send someone out asap to resolve this as it is extremely disruptive.

  • Hello. The problem is still present and has not been resolved. The manhole cover is still very, very loud every time a car drives over it. This was not an issue until the pothole appeared and your repairs have made the noise worse. Please re-visit the issue and spend some time there listening to the sounds as many cars drive over the manhole cover. Something is clearly loose or uneven and needs attention asap please. It is extremely disruptive and is a constant nuisance every day and every night. Please resolve and fix the manhole cover.
