Sent to Buckinghamshire Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 5262959.

3 larger pot holes immediately outside our garden

71 vine road stone Poges

There is over 40 pot hole along the road and it is causing damage to our vehicles!!

We have had to replace a tyre and replace an alloy on our 4x4 because the road in and out of our home is an absolute disgrace! It is really dangerous for children to cycle along here!

The issue has been present months now and nobody has come to fix the street

Our children cannot walk along the footpaths as they are full of holes/cracks and uneven surfaces along our street. It is really dangerous

Updates

  • 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.

  • Update

    We can confirm that this section of road is currently on our Capital Maintenance list for extensive resurfacing which we hope will be carried out within the next 12-24 months. We always try were possible to adhere to the dates given, but unfortunately there are occasions when we have to delay the work due to unforeseen circumstances.

    In the meantime please be assured, we will continue to monitor the area in line with our Highways Safety Inspection Policy.
