There is a dangerous set of electrical cables that have come out of the pavement. These look unattended and also are trip hazards. They are outside number 25 + 27 Wathen Road. I have added photos to share to highlight the concerns.

Hello, can you please provide an update to the next phase of works? It is dark early in the afternoon and the cables are dangerous. My partner is heavily pregnant and worried. Thanks.

Please see attached a photograph of a food bin caught in the cables protruding out of the ground.

These cables are left unattended and are dangerous.
