Very uneven side of tarmac footpath near a bench

Reported via desktop in the Pavements category anonymously at 13:43, Tuesday 3 June 2025

Sent to Bristol City Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 7656316.

Whilst on a day trip to Bristol we took a walk along the path next to Circular Road. I twisted my ankle badly on the inside of the path right next to a bench. The tarmac was very uneven, like it had been partly melted in the heat. Luckily I fell sideways onto the bench and not onto the floor. A visit the next day to my local A&E confirmed I have actually fractured a bone in my foot.
