  • I live in Hill street, Totterdown. That is 6 streets away from this manhole and the noise travels over the whole neighbourhood. How long does it take to investigate Bristol council? Fix it please, this has been going on for a long time

  • I live opposite and have to have windows shut at night AND earplugs. I can hear it all day when i am working. I feel like investigating a claim for distress. Its like someone banging a drum all night. Its driving me insane and trashing my sleep.

  • This has now been going on unreasonably long - this is such a loud noise that is preventing sleep and causing interruption to working from home. Please treat as an urgent issue!
