Wilson Chowdhry, writer for the Chigwell Row Community blog, said:

"I noticed some changes to Pudding Lane over the last year and this year and the council has been emailing updates.

"It's great to see the regular reports submitted to the council have had an effect, though the length of time taken to resolve issues is less than satisfactory.

"At least we know we can get things done and I encourage people to share further road matters so that we can keep a public record.

"Together we can make our streets safer.

We would like to hear from local residents about the recent repairs. Have the works concluded and if so do they satisfy the needs of local residents.
