Outside No. 5 Canfield Place

Reported via desktop in the Problem with Trench category anonymously at 15:10, Tuesday 16 September 2025

Sent to Camden Borough Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 8173546.

Thames Water excavated the road, and repaired a leak. Pit left open for 1 week, with perimeter barriers. After a further 1 week, the pit was backfilled with hard material to within 200 mm of surface, and left with perimeter barriers. After a further 2 weeks, while the road has remained closed to lorry traffic and Veolia refuse collection, the barriers have been pushed aside, blown over by recent winds, and the part-backfilled pit remains in dangerous condition.
