It means so much to people in wheelchairs and with mobility issues for sidewalks and crossings to be kept clear. Impassable areas often prevent them from getting to stores or accessing public transportation and severely limits them from participating in every day life. Thank you ❤
It is the council's concern, it's a public walkway and they don't give a fly f... about it, that is what council tax is paid for. Thank you for taking it upon yourself to maintain and clear up your area. Great videos and keep up the great work.
Agreed, but why are we paying council taxes? Because lazy contractors are getting paid to do it, and they don't and the council don't hold them to account.
Thank you for cleaning the ADA curb ramps. The inserts in the pavement are called Truncated Domes. It is to let the blind and visually impaired they are close to the street and to stop. Those areas are supposed to be kept clear for those using wheelchairs, walkers, canes, seeing eye dogs. Also thanks for cleaning the drop inlet. That would cause water to back up and pond on the road. It doesn’t take much water for tires to hydroplane and not be able to steer or brake. Again, thank you. Debby, watching from Cedar Hill, Missouri, USA.
@@berkleywoman I knew that, but I didn’t know what they were called in the UK. I am sure there are some kind of rules that apply there for access for the disabled in public buildings and transportation.
Hi Debora, thanks so much for educating me on this. I genuinely had no idea what the little lumps were, and was thinking while shovelling, I wonder why they're like this, but you've just explained, and it makes perfect sense, and quite obvious now. What a brilliant idea, simple, but yet very effective, but not so much when they're covered in dirt and weeds aye 😏
Anyone who does something very worthwhile for his community on his own time and dime is a great guy. I absolutely loved this video. I hope your neighbors appreciated it. Thank you Nick. 💯🙏🇺🇸
You should 100% get paid by the council! The budget they receive and their failure to maintain public spaces is honestly shameful! That area looks soo much better! AMAZING!!
Hi Nick, well done. I do this kind of job on occasion (not professionally) and I would like to share this: I put red cones for the pedestrians, I wear a hi-viz shirt, eye protection (when using the trimmer especially), and ear protection. I try to orient the trimmer in a way that the risk of throwing a pebble into a window or parked cars is minimized. A pair of protective eye glasses last me a year, because of the many scratches from little stones and what not when using the trimmer (garded). But you are the pro here, so the only thing I can say is 'take care mate'. Cheers :)
You should see what Ben and his Dad from Flawless Cleaning in the South East London , they are doing a lot of stuff in the community. Keep up all the great work you all do .
Now that is the neatest and cleanest buststop in Trumpington!!! 👍🏼👍🏼 Now imagine if everyone took some time out of their week just to invest in making their neighborhood cleaner and safer for others? You, Nick, are setting a standard for others to follow. ❤ Well done! Now, if the council (?) would just install a trashcan in that middle of the road island, it would help keep the trash off of the ground. 😉 Great job and thanks for sharing. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I find if one puts a rubbish bin anywhere, big items get dumped next to it. Or its not emptied fast enough so there becomes a litter issue. We need to learn to take our rubbish home and dispose properly
Good for you! I also would have felt a bit self conscious talking to the camera, but thanks for braving it so we could see the nice change you were able to make. Seems perfectly reasonable to put the debris under the bushes, as it was a tidy solution.
Such an improvement, it’s lovely to see you doing this kind of work. Uncared for open spaces have a subconscious effect on people, I think, it just sort of brings you down a bit to see them as they deteriorate. One of our local councillors goes round cleaning road signs of his own bat, it’s great.
I loved this! There are so many areas like this here in the U.S. Like you said, local governments have limited budgets so they have to focus on certain priorities. I’m in New York City and when there is an impending storm we are asked to pitch in and clear the storm drains of debris. Being a good neighbor does make a difference. Thank you for being one!
I am really impressed. I am very aware that learning when, where and how to use a particular tool is the sign of a real professional. Your fellow residents will appreciate coming home and not seeing a big eyesore. Zen and the art of the shovel. A thing of flow and beauty. It is your focus and efficiency that made it such hard work. Thank you, sir!
You have done a great service to this community. The people from the area will see and appreciate what you have done. Way to go. Littleton Colorado USA
Fantastic job, and also highlights perfectly why flooding / no access roads etc up and down the country when roadside gutters / drains / soak aways are covered by grass, weeds or other debris. Drives me mad. Again fantastic work and hope to see more content like this!
You can tell by the mud collecting & grass & weed growth that that corner of the walkway floods regularly due to that storm drain being clogged up. Great job! Making a huge difference for the disabled community & the public at large.
Looks fabulous! It was so nice of you to clean up that area. I got a sick feeling in my stomach when I saw that “Look right” on the ground! Reminded me of my visit to London several years ago! Being from Chicago, where we drive on the “right” side of the street 🤣, I was glad they had those reminders! Almost got knocked over by a cabbie!
Wow, when it was sped up it looked really daring. I kept telling myself: If he had been hit by a car he wouldn't have been able to post this video. 😅 I really liked the transformation there. Maybe for the future: remember where you took the before pictures and take the after pictures from the same point of view. That is always striking in my opinion.
That crossing area looks fantastic! Shoveling up all that debris looks really easy on video, but it is incredibly difficult and wears the body out pretty fast. Well done!
It really does lol, I thought I was quite a fit person, but blimey I was sweating buckets shovelling all that up, tough work for sure. Thanks for the great feedback as always ❤️
It’s awesome to see you jumping on the community clean up bandwagon! These are some of my favourite videos! There are tons of community stuff like this that needs pressure washing too… obviously not at an intersection but you know what I mean 😅 great job as always, Nick! It really does make a difference when you clean up a space like that that would be ignored possibly forever… you’re a champ! It actually looks like besides making the drainage work again, you also uncovered marks on the street and curbs for the blind. The change in texture tells them where they are in the street.
You deserve a medal. It's commendable to see someone taking an interest in the public. That's some job you did there mate, and you're right, it makes all the difference. Well done, and Thankyou.
Nick I am very proud of you for doing this and doing an excellent job of it. As a wheelchair user obstacles like that are really difficult and that makes it so much harder. As someone who thinks a lot of you next time I better see you in dayglow bloody yellow or orange while doing it my heary was in my darn mouth the whole time and while I know you must have been fine as you posted the video doesn't stop me worrying 😅😅
Aw thanks Polgara, love that 😍. I know, slap on the wrist for me, I really should know better, will definitely put one on next tome for sure. Thanks for caring about me ❤️, big love, Nick 😊
This is so much better, good job! It's actually my first time seeing a crosswalk that is not straight. Are they more common in Great Britain? The "Look right" and "Look left" are for smartphone users looking onto the ground, aren't they 😉
Wow, great job! What I like about you, is that no matter what you do, you take care to do it well. You just made the world safer and more beautiful. Lovely. 😊 Stay safe.
Nick, awesome job cleaning up the bus stop, in the center of the road and both sides of the road. now the water can drain, the people chave room to stand waiting for the bus. God bless you Nick, God bless your Family.
I love that you're doing this! I watch Nathan's channel and as a matter of fact he just visited us in the U.S. He helped some people in some really bad neighborhoods and did it with a big smile.Thank you for doing this, I know a lot of people will appreciate it.
Nathan does great things. Glad you've enjoyed the small crisis jobs and are doing some of your own. 8:41. You did a very nice job, that is a greatly improved area and better driving visibility.
@@PrestigeExternalCleaning I do something similar with a few hundred metres of grass verge opposite my home. I had a chat with a parish counselor and he was fine with it, a county counselor that I also spoke to about it was slightly less fine, and although he said he was OK, the council themselves, an anonymous body, may have different ideas. Mainly due to the risks and H&S. However, my main worry is if my strimmer or mower throws up a stone and hits a passing car. A neighbor of mine looks after cleaning a stretch of footpath in the village with the council's permission, they supply the tools and take away the collected rubbish when she leaves the bags at the end of the road, so they are open to people doing this sort of work. It is great to see someone taking some time and effort to keep their neighborhood that little bit nicer for everyone else. Thank you. I rather suspect that I know where you were working and I'll be over that way for 2 days next week, I'll give it an inspection if I'm right! :-)
@@PrestigeExternalCleaningI wouldn't be so sure. The council where I live tried to prosecute a young lad who thought he was helping the community by doing something similar.
@@LeeFrancis-f6y where’s this? And did they succeed in prosecuting? I very much doubt the courts would take it seriously. My actions are no different to people litter picking to clean up an area, and Cambridge city council welcomes litter picking volunteers with open arms
Hi Nick, awesome job as always. ❤ You may already know this, but I wanted to share… Shovel tip; I sharpen mine to make cutting through weeds, grass and roots easier. I do a quick sharpening before putting it away, it cleans the blade and makes it ready for its next use. You are much tougher than me. Trimming in shorts, all those little gravel pieces, they ping around everywhere and they hurt on bare skin. ❤
Hey Patricia, thanks for the great tips. I used to work in construction many moons ago, and I remember the groundsmen used to sharpen their shovels, so yes, great tip. I did indeed feel the stones pinging against my legs, but I find it less uncomfortable than having really hot legs that are covered up, the lesser of two evils, so to speak. I run very hot when doing anything physical, it's why cold winters don't bother me like it does a lot of guys, so struggle when i'm covered up, specifically my legs, head and hands - strange combination I know 🙃
Great job - two hints for you 1) wear puncture proof gloves (needles and glass) 2) one of the other channels I follow the man sharpens his shovel blade to cut through the dense stuff.
What an amazing difference! It shouldn't have to be like this though... we pay more and more tax and yet many roadsides are just left to decay. Where's all our money going?! Bless you for doing it though.
Great job Andy, shame the council can't do it. The state of the roads reminded me that when I lived in Cornwall you always knew when they were going to chop up and trim the hedgerows, they sent a roadsweeper around the day before, (it's true, believe me). Keep up the good work and posting the videos...👍😊👍
Fantastic job 👍 If the council done that half the road would’ve been coned off for days and cost even more money. Councils only want to do half the job and spend the bare minimum nowadays with minimal effort.
You obviously don't understand how council landscaping works. Councils contract most work like landscaping to private companies like Serco, SUEZ, etc. They cost more money than hiring people to do it themselves. Councils have limited budgets for landscaping. My Dad is part of a specialist landscaping team which was cut from 6 employees to just 2 for a major city. The government has been cutting budgets for these for decades. So when people report issues they take a long time to get through all the reports and the contractors don't always do the job when requested. My dad says things used to be so much better. Councils weren't even allowed to run their own bus services when private companies like Arriva refused to take the contracts for vital but quiet routes. I think the law has changed on that, I'm not sure.
First of all, case in point from my comment yesterday about you doing the ladys yard for her since she was not in good health! Now, a little background in my mental health, I have bipolar 1 disorder, and wow are you triggering my "lets clean everything" mode, (mania is the culprit on my feelings right now lol)! I love it! That's a great trigger! and BTW most of us bipolars have 0 filter, so what come out of our mouths is 100% truth! Sometimes a little TOO honest at times lol. Anyhow, another job smashed out of the field! AWESOME JOB again!!😁😁
What a perfect way to help your neighbourhood and community! Just make sure to prioritize your safety first ! Don't forget the high visibility vest again, don't want you hurt ! Great clean up !!🎉
It means so much to people in wheelchairs and with mobility issues for sidewalks and crossings to be kept clear. Impassable areas often prevent them from getting to stores or accessing public transportation and severely limits them from participating in every day life. Thank you ❤

That's a great trigger! and BTW most of us bipolars have 0 filter, so what come out of our mouths is 100% truth! Sometimes a little TOO honest at times lol. Anyhow, another job smashed out of the field! AWESOME JOB again!!😁😁
Fantastic work again! 👌👏
