These they added to nominations they already had and apparently they could now nominate up to 5 locations in each category. The ones they put forward are: Roads; Dartmouth Road, Sneyd Road, Walm Lane, Exeter Road. Pavements; Anson Road Nos 1-61, Dartmouth Road, Teignmouth Road, Mapesbury Road, Blackstone Road): However, there is no guarantee that these locations will be done as Brent Officers will no doubt check them out compared to some criteria.
