HOW CAN I REGISTER MY HIGHWAYS ISSUES?

Many of the emails and letters I receive from Epping residents relate to what we refer to as ‘highways issues’. These range from potholes, to street lights, to kerb drops, to blocked drains to bus shelters, to footpaths, to road markings and signs right the way through to overgrown hedges.

All highways issues are the responsibility of Essex County Council and as a way of helping you to report issues you may have or have noticed within the community, they have recently launched a new section to their website to help speed up the process of getting problems logged and sorted. To visit the site, please click here.

Alternatively, you can contact a member of our local Highways Office by calling 0845 603 7621 or by emailing highways.westarea@essex.gov.uk. Finally, you can write to them at: Warwick House, Roydon Road, Harlow, Essex, CM19 5DX.
