Publisher summary

We will not investigate Ms X’s complaint about noise disturbance and damage to her property caused by traffic going over speedbumps outside her home. There is insufficient evidence of fault and any injustice caused by early maintenance works is not significant enough to warrant our involvement. If Ms X considers the Council is liable for damage to her property, she can make a claim through the Council’s insurers or the courts.
