Dangerous road surface J8-J10 M6, 21st May

Sun, 21 May 2023 10:29:18 +0100
52.559014 -1.979107

The road surface on the M6 between J8 and J10 is dangerous. Every approx 5m there is a join in the road surface which is raised from the rest of the road. These joins are akin to speed bumps but due to high use they are eroded in some areas to leave deep cracks and potholes. I find them concerning when driving, but as a motorbike rider, I have serious concern for my safety when using this section of the motorway due to the road surface. It has been ongoing for many years but I have noticed it has become particularly bad over the last 2 months.

I would like to request that our street is made permit only due to the fact teachers from pennyhill keep parking so inconsiderately and incredibly dangerous double parking if ever a fire engine had to come down here it would struggle. We struggle to get onto our own driveways. Called the school numerous times and they just said to contact highways.!!!

At rush hour our street is getting jammed with traffic. We used to have double yellow lines outside our house which was removed 20years ago ish. I think by replacing the double yellow lines would help ease the congestion. Which would brings two lanes into use instead of one
