The new pavement in West Approach Drive has no kerb and cars are mounting the pavement.

Sent to Gloucestershire County Council 1 minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 7709457.
West Approach Drive was given a new pavement along with the Evesham Road cycle lane. This road is the main approach to the Pump Room which is the premier building in Cheltenham. The new pavement is very shoddy. It is only wide enough for one pedestrian and has no kerb. Consequently cars that are doing u turns at the end of West Approach Drive ( a cul de sac) are continually mounting the pavement. This is dangerous for pedestrians and ruins the grass area. See picture. The quality of construction of the pavement is very shabby for such an important road and a kerb need to be constructed.
