The top level of the road surface on the A4010 from the hearing dogs to Foundry lane is disintegrating daily and has been for the past 2 years. The surface is loose and is being scattered off the road and into the kerb and pavement on the northbound carriageway. The pedestrian footpath adjacent is covered in chipping, I’ve been hit from debris while on foot and have had material hit my screen as a driver. I appreciate budgets are tight but please have the path swept and a road sweeper clear the worst.

  • This has been passed to the local area technician to investigate the enquiry/issue regarding a pothole/road surface.

    During winter months we receive a very high number of reports regarding potholes or a poor road surface, it's easy to assume that potholes are formed due to roads being poorly maintained but that is not usually the case. There are many factors that can cause potholes, particularly during the winter months when water seeps in through cracks in the road surface, collecting underneath and when the water freezes, it expands and forces up the road surface in through cracks in the road surface.

    Our priority is always the safety of road users, so in some cases during busy periods a permanent repair is not always possible immediately. However, temporary repairs are a way to ensure the area is safe until such times as we can return to make a permanent repair.
