The video shows the impact that a sunken service cover has to a cyclist. This bicycle is a mountain bike with front suspension. The impact to a road or tourer bike is more severe.
In addition to the risks of injury or property damage on impact, there is a risk of collision from passing vehicles not expecting a cyclist to change position on the road to avoid impact with an SIP.
Letter to United Water:
29 Sept 2008
The Service Inspection Points (SIPs) shown in this video (38 Murray Tce, Oaklands Pk) have not been corrected. There were two down the road that have been raised, but no action to fix these.
United water Service have been contacted today (8381 0300) and the sip at 38 Murray Tce reported (Job Number W1162287).
