Loose and Noisy Fire Hydrant Cover After Second Replacement

Reported via mobile in the Loose/rattling cover/ironwork category anonymously at 08:16, Tuesday 17 September 2024

Sent to Gloucestershire County Council 1 minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 6479777.

Fire hydrant cover is loose, knocking and loud. Cover and frame was replaced as part of Pirton lane resurfacing. First cover was immediately loose and noisy. Issue reported direct to contractors who replaced cover with alternative. Feedback was new cover may not be good enough as frame may be warped. Contractor advised new cover would be tried before frame replacement was considered. New cover is now loose and noisy again with every car that drives over it. Now causing disruption to local business with continual noise intrusion.
