Eastbound bollard, Westbound bollard, AND adjacent street light are all not working
Reported via desktop in the Traffic bollard category anonymously at 07:07, Wednesday 12 March 2025
Sent to London Borough of Bexley less than a minute later. Report ref: 7264361.
There is a kerbed traffic island separating the Eastbound and Westbound traffic has white bollards which are totally covered in dirt and also the lighting is not working. The situation is made worse by the adjacent street light being out of service too. I witnessed a vehicle swerving violently to avoid the traffic island, and it would appear that the darkened area caused by the lack of lighting in the bollards, plus the dirty state of the bollards, plus the adjacent street light being extinguished all adds up to being a very dark segment of road. NB: I believe there is a traffic camera of some description immediately next to the street lamp and adjacent to the traffic island.
