‘Earthquake’ kerb has been crumbling for years

We’ve had enough – Christine Mowbrey with her damaged path We’ve had enough – Christine Mowbrey with her damaged path

A WOMAN has hit out at the county council for leaving the end of her driveway looking like it’s been hit by an earthquake.

Christine Mowbrey, of Moreland Close, Benfleet , says she has complained for the past three years about the condition of the kerb and pavement at the end of her drive.

Mrs Mowbrey said she and her neighbours have been trying for years to get the problems sorted out, but have been continually fobbed off.

The brick kerb has come away from the pavement and wobbles when it’s walked on.

Mrs Mowbrey, 64, said she is fearful it’s going to take someone getting hurt to make sure the crumbling pavement is fixed.

She said: “The kerb at the end of my pathway has been crumbling away for the past three years. I have called the council so many times I have lost count.

“I have even said to the people at the council that I will get someone out to fix it myself, but I was deterred because of health and safety issues.

“All I want is the path fixed because it’s dangerous. It looks like there could have been an earthquake with the ground crumbling like that. All the neighbours have been talking about this for years and we are at the end of our tether because we just don’t know what to do.”

A spokesman for Essex County Council said: “The problems with this stretch of pavement have been logged in our system and an inspector has been out to assess the area. We can confirm repairs are scheduled in October.”

It does look just like an earthquake. Just ask the residents of Northern Iran or Christchurch in New Zealand.
Perhaps you should campaign to stop people parking cars on the kerb rather than making such ridiculous claims.

Oh good, my long lost family has decided to make a reappearance - how I've missed them!

Anyway, not to encourage them but I agree with The Real Haze that Christine Mowbrey has made a very misguided simile comparing it to an earthquake. I'm also left wondering that if the cracks are at the end of her drive, is she also driving over it?

yes coz its a well known fact that people in hospital do not have access to tvs or dvd players and there also not allowed natural sunlight and have to live on a diet of bricks and argon.

trying to be funny is one thing barking complete nonsense like a lunatic is another. its clear which one youve gone for.

You should go back to school and brush up your language skills before you post any more pointless gibberish on here. Bet pounds to peanuts you would be the first to complain if the pavement outside your house looked like this.
.
On a slightly different tack, this does look awfully like damage from parked cars. Pavements are not built to take the weight of cars, unlike roads, and this sort of damage plus broken gas and sewerage pipes is the usual result. Pavements are for people, not cars!

It could be damage caused by tree roots, looks like there is a fair sized tree behind her in that garden. If it is damaging the road, it could also be damaging the foundations of the nearby houses.

Actually most people do not realise that pavements are built to a different standard to roads, that's why they park their cars on the pavements. Suggest you seek medical help for your aggressive paranoia.

LOL evreyone knows the diffrence between the pavement and road we also know what a cat is and how to draw a square. perhaps you werent taught the green cross code when you were younger its a marvel how you havent been hit by a car when crossing the road (not pavement) LOL
and for the construction of the road theres a great deal of debate concening this - theoretical physics suggests that string thoery could exlpain the make up of all sub atomic mass but its impossble to confirm this as our current scientific develpment wont allow it as yet.

Nothing wrong with my last sentence.
Junior schools don't teach the difference between roads and pavements. If they did it might stop people parking their cars on pavements. People who do this have fractured several of my neighbours' gas and/or sewerage pipes which is dangerous as well as stupid and costly.
If you did know anything about road construction the first thing you would probably have told me is that roads have to take the weight of twenty ton lorries concentrated in small tyre footprints whereas pavements only have to take the weight of over-weight chavvies, and that is reflected in their construction.
You're going to be in deep doo-doo when teacher finds out what you've been doing on her computer.

I noticed that too but not wanting to jump to conclusions I assumed that her driveway might be just out of the shot. If not, you are almost certainly correct.

Unlikely. It looks nothing like root incursion. Roads' concrete sub-surface is usually far too thick to experience direct tree-root damage.

Have to agree many paths in Benfleet are dangerous and don't get repaired particularly in cul de sacs
The only paths I have noticed being resurfaced are those at Tarpots/Sadlers on the side of the road which was already in good state of repair whereas the side of the road (with the cycle lane) which was/is in a bad state of repair has been left in a poor state. Good planning
Not

So what happened to ET and the Dale Farm 2 thread? Bet he had another wobbler about the Wilson report, he hates the idea that his traveller companions were just normal Irish people who were ostracised by Irish society, he likes to think that travellers from all over Europe have some exotic common connection but you can't argue with the truth!

I've just seen the Mrs Dales diary 2 thread. Does anyone know how the 15 van pitches will accommodate 80 or how the Council of Billericay can justify the millions spent on moving those vans from the North side of the A127 over to the south? I know Billericay like to dump their rubbish in Basildon, but could they not get a cheaper job than this? (I hasten to add, I mean rubbish in the sense that it is something Billericay Urban District Council don't want, not in any way as a slight on our neighbours over at Dale Farm!)
