THE pavements in York are getting worse.

On two occasions recently my husband, who is a fit 83-year-old, nearly fell tripping over raised paving stones.

Then, however, he fell his full length outside Top Shop in Piccadilly.

Fortunately, his injuries were not too severe, but it could have been much worse.

When will the council deal with these pavements before a really bad accident occurs?
