The building site just next door to the post office in Vinson Close doesn't comply with the T&C of their planning permission by allowing the trucks to come out of their yard with dirty wheels. Today it gets very bad and dangerous for anyone on 2 wheels. This is a 30mph speed limit road and any scooter or motorbike riding up the street is very likely to crash considering how bad the condition is. Residents have been complaining many times to the site foreman (Alex) but despite his own company statement supporting the planning application clearly saying that no vehicle will leave the yard with dirty wheels, he just ignores this requirement, leaving the road unsafe. He sent out a worker with a broom but apart from spreading the mud over the surface, he doesn't achieve anything. The other issue is that all that mud end up in the rain water network which is another breach of the planning permission T&C.

Immediate action is required to prevent an accident.
