Ahhhhhh its not that bad you just gotta stand up so it doesnt hurt your bottom when you go over that :D

And i do believe the road is that bad because they are doing a fair bit of building development around that area. Lots of trucks and so forth - probably cant be helped and im sure they will fix it when all the building works have been completed.

They are actually widening that road so it'll be 2 lanes in each direction over the crossing. I doubt you'll get any action till they've finsihed developing that industrial estate.

I was contacted by the local city council last night...

They are passing it on to Mel-Rail........ because they are responsible for all roads within 3m of the rails...

Made that the other way around, ie somewhat dangerous for bikes, extremely for cars and watch works happen almost as soon as you hit send... one of the downfalls of democracy..
