Report on FixMyStreet
Potholes first reported Autumn 2023!! At various points along the road between What3Words locations forget-hiking-cowboy and oils-map-method., 3rd April
I and others have previously reported this issue over the last 6 months. See FixMyStreet refs 5214592, 5215490, 5791251 & 5687216. Thank You to the person who filed the last one-I have used your photo. As I have commented in my previous report, do we really have to wait for somebody to be seriously injured, or worse, before the Council does something? Or is the cost of using taxpayers' funding to settle claims for vehicle damage seen as a cheaper option than doing the repair in the first place?? I seem to recall similar potholes along the same road between Cooters End Lane and Thrales End Lane were patched in early Autumn last year. Beats me why these weren't done at the same time but what do I know, I'm just a taxpayer.
