“Carla, the EH seem to suffer with problems knowing local geography!
There was actually to incidents there this evening, one which closed Shakespear and one which closed Honicknowle lane. The second one appeared as if something had been thrown at the windscreen of a vehicle.”

“I'd like to point out that the incident happened in Honicknowle, not Crownhill, and Shakespeare Road is still open, although Honicknowle Lane is closed from Shakespeare Road onwards. I know because I live in Shakespeare Road and can see the location of the incident from my house.”
