Lorries on pavement - they've just demolished a house in my road. Massive
lorries were driven onto the site for the rubble. To avoid dust, the
contractors sprayed the rubble with water (all weekend!), but this no
doubt added to the weight. The pavement is now massively chewed up, and I
saw the lorries doing this.

The contractors have now left this with an old wooden door over the hole.

I can contact my council to report the damage, so they will repair it
(eventually), but really the demolition contractors ought to pay for it,
surely? What is their responsibility, and how should I deal with this?



Who does the pavement belong to? - if it's the council, then it's up to them
to seek reimbursement from whoever damaged the pavement, but the chances are
they won't bother, they'll just replace/repair the damage and add it to the
CT bills next year.
