Well done to Gill Hutchison on this piece of work. I know how much time she put into it and innovation she showed. Well done also to everyone else involved, especially the pupils at Sparrow Farm.
Fingers crossed that this will deliver the intended benefits!
A lovely morning and I saw quite a few residents out and about.
Picked up some things to report.
1) Highways
Outside 133 Cygnet Avenue:
Near 145 Cygnet Avenue:
2) Graffiti
Outside 5 Central Parade, Sparrow Farm Drive:
3) Flytipping
At the rear of 5 Sparrow Farm Drive:
And, diagonally behind 9 Sparrow Farm Drive:
4) Hounslow Homes Carpark on Finch Drive
Near number 2:
Opposite number 9:
5) Slightly sloping Streetlight
Opposite 151 Cygnet Avenue:
Will report the above in the morning.
I did not get around as much as I would have liked to with the rain but did pick up a few things:
1) Graffiti
Outside Central Parade, Sparrow Farm Drive:
Opposite 12 Sparrow Farm Drive:
Next to 14 Green Man Lane:
2) Footways
I will ask for the following to be checked out opposite 135 The Drive:

50 Fern Grove:
155 Cygnet Avenue:
Between 16 and 45 Sparrow Farm Drive:
Outside 29 and 31 Sparrow Farm Drive:

On the more positive side, I remember looking at the following outside 42 to 58 Field Road a few years ago and it was very bad – now fine:
4) Central Parade, Sparrow Farm Drive
Other than the graffiti, things were looking good. Bin had been emptied and frontage looked clean and tidy:
Outside 10 Central Parade:
5) Bin outside 24 Faggs Road
Looked full, which I found unusual with the other bins in this street looking empty:
6) Drainage
Overflowing outside 140 Faggs Road:
Will report things in the morning.
1) Highways
I do not think I have ever seen so many defects marked up for repair on footways in my ward. Either there has been planned visits or someone has pre-empting my post today.
Here are some defects not yet picked up. The first is outside 88 Harlington Road West and I trust it is a temporary repair. I will find out – I am confident that it is a TfL matter:
The following is outside 99 Harlington Road West:
Outside 117 Carlton Avenue, I noticed that the lines around the defect have faded. Will check it will be repaired soon:
Opposite 144 Hounslow Road:
Here is a selection of ones already picked up. First between 4 &6 Baber Drive:
10 Denham Road:
12 Lansbury Avenue:

4) Waste
I am pleased that the problem of bags out early at the side of 119 Harlington Road West has pretty much gone away (though one small bag there today), I notice the following at the rear:
I am concerned to see how flowing it was on a Saturday morning.
And someone has dumped manure in The Vale (near the junction with Hounslow Road):
5) Entrance to former Eldridge House
I noted the following earlier today:
I reported the above in December (reference 1069674) – will ask why the problem remains?
6) Hedge preventing use of footway
The following opposite 85 Beeston Way was mentioned to me in December. No real change today.
7) Latest with conservatory at Lavender Court:
8 ) Street cleaning request in Hounslow Road
The following outside 80 Hounslow Road needs a good sweep and clean:
And the following is a regular problem outside 41 Hounslow Road but again a clean and sweep would be appreciated:
Where applicable, I will report the above on Monday morning.
In the past 48 hours (mostly today) residents in The Dell, Harlington Road West, Clymping Dene, Walsham Road, Harlington Road East, Hounslow Road, Nursery Close, Fern Grove, Park Way, Cambria Court, Brainton Avenue, Durham Road, The Drive, Cygnet Avenue, Sparrow Farm Drive, Finch Drive, Chichester Way, Denham Road, Carlton Avenue, Viola Avenue, Byward Avenue, Baber Drive, Beeston Way, Field Road, Becketts Close, Lavender Court, Gardner Place, Lansbury Avenue, The Vale, Roman Close, Mill Way, Buckingham Avenue & Rosslyn Avenue will have received a leaflet from me.
Will post casework that I have picked up later. In the meantime, please feel free to comment on the content.
The first two of the pictures are next to 2 Carlton Avenue. I will ask for the tagging to be removed:
The following is at the side of 44 Carlton Avenue. I will ask for this – and similar outside 24 – to be removed. 44 has already been reported:
The following is outside one of the units at Central Parade, Sparrow Farm Drive. I will ask Hounslow Homes to remove the tagging and Environment department why the bin is so full:
Very pleased to see the job done on the weeding near 50 to 80 Sparrow Farm Drive:
But the following (between 80 and 82) still not done:
The following overgrowth – previously reported – also not done:
Finally, here are the garages between Denham Road and Chichester Way. It really is a shame that there has not been more progress in doing something with this site as many of the garages are not used:
I overlooked the following from last weekend. Here is the bin at Central Parade – I will report the tagging:
Some tagging on one of the empty units:
Likewise for the phonebox:
The following was taken at the side of Central Parade (near the entrance to the flats):
I will ask for Highways to take a look at repairing the defects.
Been a lovely weekend, which is good but hard going when delivering leaflets. As always, picked up a few things. This first one was opposite 132 Cygnet Avenue and I will ask that this tagging be removed:
The following was taken by 159 Sparrow Farm Drive and the overgrowth needs to be cut back. I will ask for this to be done and for the alley at the rear of 163 to 189 etc to be looked at also:
The nearest house to the following is 80 Sparrow Farm Drive. I will ask for the overgrowth to be removed from and within the drain:
And, I took a look at the carpark between numbers 50 to 80 Sparrow Farm Drive. It would be good if all the weeds at the edges could be removed:
