Title: pavements
Post by: anna g on November 28, 2011, 18:49:41 PM: I have spent the last year trudging along the top road and side streets of Ovacik with my baby and pram and I am basically tired of lugging a pram along pavements with ditches/uneven surfaces where I sometimes end up with a stuck pram or having to resort to walking in the road until I find a flat surface. I mainly now walk down the best of a bad bunch of side streets to get to the main road. I wish the council would sort out their pavements. I am surprised my pram has lasted this long. Does anyone know who I could write to? Worth a try. Just had to have a little moan!

Zabita'll Fix It ? :D

There's no point in repairs being carried-out up there. As soon as there's a decent storm it all gets washed down the hill again.

Still in search of the perfect, even route to Hisaronu. Lets hope my pram lasts the distance. Thank god my son won't remember all the bumpy rides he had. :)

If you do not complain , the officials will think ( and they always want to think ) , everything is OK. I will join by putting my signature under any written complaint that I will regard justified ; may it be about the bad pavements , bad roads or disturbing loud music in summer etc.
