Not sure why I am wasting my time given the number of previous reports but our road is downright dangerous to drive on. It has been like this for weeks now and no obvious action from the custodians of the tax we pay. Having danced around the 400m stretch of potholes successfully, they got me today. The pothole in question is 100cm long and 60cm wide. At its deepest it is 10cm. Please get this sorted and please advise how I seek compensation for my tyre and the damage to my suspension - see pictures.

  • 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 creates 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.
