Reporting footpath & other issues
If you have encountered a public right of way that needs attention or another highways concern, the best way to report an issue is to use the Suffolk County Council Reporting Tool (links below). By selecting the correct link relating to your concern and having an image of the problem ready to upload, you will be able to mark the location with a drop pin on the map and add an explanation of the issue you would like addressed. If the issue has already been reported, this can be seen by zooming in on the relevant area on the map and clicking on any drop pins already in that location. Once you have logged a report you should receive an acknowledgement and any further updates regarding the issue.
