Fixed
Bridge Road outside Wembley Park station, by traffic lights
Sent to Brent Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 7264996.
Pavement is raised and is a serious trip hazard. Over the 18 months or so myself and my friends have seen multiple people trip and some even fall after tripping on it.
This morning we saw a lady trip and fall into the road because of it. She hurt her hands and her knee quite badly.
Previously reported to you late 2023, see attached photo.
Also reported it to staff in Wembley Park station and they will be reporting it too and agree that it is bad.

I walk past here everyday and have made numerous reports along Wembley Park Drive / Bridge Road for various issues like this, thank you for taking the time to raise this defect!
In my experience the Council is extremely random in what they approve, some person behind a desk who never gets out approves works without actually inspecting anything, the Councils budget cuts are ridiculous and thus dont seem to have any surveyors!
This defect is terrible and is highly likely to cause injury even more so due to its location, its right outside the station entrance bus stop and the crossing, you have the Bible leafletters who have taken up shop right outside area this further narrowing the area coupled with school children running to and from school its manic especially in the mornings!
Get it fixed Brent Council and stop acting in a negligent fashion this is 2 years in the making
