FixMyStreet is a platform enabling residents to report local issues, and in Dagenham, several problems have emerged since January. The most frequently cited complaints relate to potholes, particularly one reported in Ripple Road that posed a significant risk to motorcyclists. Other prevalent issues include broken bus shelters, littering, faded road markings, and malfunctioning traffic lights. Despite these reports, Barking and Dagenham Council does not support FixMyStreet, encouraging residents to use their website for problem reporting instead.
The council doesn't subscribe to websites such as Fix My Street and this is reflected with messaging on their websites. However, the council encourages residents to report issues via their own website.
Pothole reports in Dagenham included a dramatic account from a motorcycle user who hit a big pothole, urging authorities to respect user safety.
Damaged bus stops and littered areas were notable complaints, with residents reporting smashed glass and neglected rubbish bins, reflecting local dissatisfaction with public amenities.
Reports regarding faulty traffic lights, including one that 'constantly changed', highlight ongoing concerns for public safety on busy roads in Dagenham.
