Report it online

The easiest and most efficient way to report an issue us is by reporting it online.

For those unfamiliar with completing online forms, we have created a step-by-step guide to reporting a highways issue to us online – using a phone, tablet or PC. As part of our ongoing commitment to the Age Friendly Charter, we have worked with Age UK Isle of Wight and sought feedback from their Older Person’s Steering Group when creating this instructional film.
