Dumped van outside school
Sent to Royal Borough of Greenwich less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 9903664.
Reported months ago and now people are stripping bits off this van at night and oil is all over the road as you can see in the photos and No headlights. I have spoken to the caretaker of the school and told him that I have reported this vehicle?? Let’s hope it’s removed before the children go back because if it rains with the oil on the road cars will struggle to stop if children run across the road????
