Some of our online payments including garden waste and licensing will be unavailable from 2pm Thursday 28 March until midday Tuesday 2 April due to essential maintenance.

Tell us about a problem with a manhole cover on a road, footpath or cycleway.

This could be that a cover is:

  • missing
  • damaged
  • loose
  • noisy when traffic passes over it

How to report it

You can either do this:

  • by signing in or registering for a South Gloucestershire Council account
    or
  • as a guest (we will ask for your phone number and email address, but you do not have to give it)

You can also upload a photo to help us find the problem.

Report a problem with an manhole cover

What happens next

We will inspect the problem sometime between 2 hours and 10 days after you report it. This depends on how serious it is.

We then decide whether to:

  • fix the problem
  • refer it to someone else (for example, a utility company )
  • add it to our long-term programme of work

If we feel that no further action is needed at this time we will close the report.
