Residents in Bounds Green, North London, have raised serious safety concerns after thousands of nails were reportedly scattered across local roads, causing potential danger to motorists and cyclists.

A concerned resident took to social media this morning, posting a photo of dozens of nails collected using a magnet and warning that they saw as many as 5,000 nails while commuting to work.

“Hey just wanted to inform you all about someone scattering nails on roads,” the user wrote. “I used a magnet to collect almost all of them on my road, but this is definitely not all. I saw about 5,000 this morning.”

The post, which appeared in a local Bounds Green Facebook group, has prompted calls for swift action, with residents urging others to check tyres and avoid certain routes until the roads are cleared.
