Pothole repaired last week recurred. Previous repair looked like they had dumped a wheelbarrow of rubble and a shovel of tarmac and stamped it down! If the council has payed for this they are being robbed!, 19th March

Potholes, 13th March

Wed, 13 Mar 2024 12:04:24 +0000
50.939542 0.193699

There are (still) numerous potholes, strips of tarmac washed away and edges falling away within 1km of this locality (too many to report each one individually). Many are in line of tyre and in central area such that cars swerve to avoid them, travelling into the other side of the road (on bend such that it’s into line of travel by oncoming vehicles).

Large pothole opposite crumbling road edge, 11th March

50.920698 0.176137

The very large pothole was filled in last year but has reopened in the last month and is now bigger. To get around it you are forced off the edge of the road as it’s a single track lane. The edge now is broken and deep. A rough sharp edge has been formed. This means the road is becoming impassable without damaging cars

Footways reduced in width., 21st February

Wed, 21 Feb 2024 20:03:35 +0000
50.923821 0.161613

There is so much mud on the footway on the East side of High Street and South Street in East Hoathly that it is impossible to walk two abreast or use a pushchair. HGVs are always driving over the grass verges making the matters worse. The worse area is between Buttsfield Lane and Juziers Drive and especially outside Lydfords Care Home. It is not helped by lorries going into the home with deliveries..

Road and drainage condition, 29th January

Mon, 29 Jan 2024 09:34:02 +0000
50.939507 0.192294

The stretch of rutting in the middle of the road was finally partially filled recently. But some significant potholes in amongst it were left. Ditch digging was carried out as well - it is of questionable value when the base of the ditch dug is higher than the road surface - and when it is not dug far enough to join up with existing ditch a few meters further down. It is easy to question whether the aim of the work is to resolve or exacerbate to lead to further avoidable work/profit creation. Shouldn’t costly p othole filling make things safer? Shouldn’t ditching drain water away from the road, not lead surface water from adjacent land onto it - concentrated in one dodgy area?

Just down from Coopers Cottage, opposite field gate, 7th January

Sun, 07 Jan 2024 20:08:35 +0000
50.910405 0.186291

During any substantial rain fall, this part of the road floods over pretty severely. As I understand it, there is a culvert that runs under the road, from the properly towards the fields, where the water should run. I think this is blocked as instead in runs over the road, and builds up causing a flood.

Why leave one deep hole, 27th December

Wed, 27 Dec 2023 09:59:10 +0000
50.939534 0.193452

The quality of temporary repairs here has appalled everyone. It seems common (ONLY IN EAST SUSSEX) to see shoddy temporary repairs (with a hole at the edge left to aid the removal of the newly placed tarmac) but this is ridiculous. Nothing done about the drainage issue so water is still going to erode and freeze on a dangerous stretch of road - and they didn’t fill all the deep potholes (see photo). Can I suggest that the management of East Sussex Highways maintenance is taken over by West Sussex. Much seems to be related to quality control (both maintenance work and checking of work done on the roads by utility or other contractors).

It’s been there for years but it’s now much worse due to roadworks on the opposite side pushing heavy vehicles to drive with their tires down the hole causing the road surface much greater damage.

There is a long trench like area of missing tarmac extending several meters down the road now. Drivers going down the hill go onto the opposite side of the road to avoid it - it is on a slight bend so they end up facing fast car going uphill. It is dangerous and has been getting worse for months.

Tried to ride from the lane to the first gate on the bridle path. Was so overgrown with brambles and hedging that I couldn't see the end of the gate , nor could I turn around. I had to reverse the horse back, and got attached to some branches in the process. Very dangerous.! Smaller child with me had cuts to arm from the undergrowth.

Spooky plastic type road hump on bridleway, 10th April

Mon, 10 Apr 2023 18:40:33 +0100
50.92049 0.208167

As shown in the attached photograph there has been placed a plastic type road hump across a bridleway. My friend and I had a tricky time trying to get our horses over it. It is very spooky to horses as it is coloured and shiny. This sort of thing is not usually found in the countryside. Also as you can see from the photo there are scaffolding type poles along the edge of the grass which can also be dangerous to horses should they spook and land on one.
