Local councils should deploy inspectors to check our sidewalks and see how unsafe they are.

Elderly people are falling for they are very poorly done. Most of them have been blocked by plants, feast decorations or even bricks.

I fell and broke both my arms and have a very sore back because the sidewalk had a pothole. It cost the government a lot more in medical expenses than having them repaired. Any redone kerbs are so unsafe. One prefers to walk on a narrow road chancing being hit by a car than on the pavement.
