Report that pothole or faulty streetlight with new online system in Central Bedfordshire
and live on Freeview channel 276
Residents can now report highways issues quickly, and track their progress, through a new online system launched by Central Bedfordshire Council.
The system allows reports to be pinpointed on a map, photos to be added and shows residents’ reports that have already been created, plus any planned roadworks, which saves time and avoids multiple reporting.

Customers will also now receive an update during every step of the repair, meaning they will be notified when works are booked in and when the repair is complete.
The new system - which is being delivered by the council with mySociety, creators of FixMyStreet - allows residents to report highways concerns such as potholes, faulty streetlights, blocked drains and roadside ditches, overgrown roadside hedges and trees and more.
It’s not just highways issues that can be reported, the new system allows reports on fly-tipping, weeds, litter and dog waste bins and graffiti.
Councillor Ian Dalgarno, executive member for community services, said: “This is an exciting development for Central Bedfordshire residents as the FixMyStreet system is not only easier, faster to use, and more interactive it can also connect with other systems to ultimately lead to smarter more efficient services.
