Very uneven road surface

Local council road team called tosay they will visit site of roundabout to test surface and assess the level of uneven road. Once assessed they will either fix (resurface), place a watch to see if its worsens, or leave as no action required. I predict no change will be made...

Not sure if potholes on Rover way towards steelworks will be mended - but challenge is how long the fix lasts as heavy vehicles will soon tear up these patches.

See actual response received on this one. No change as of today but had phone call to say it will be looked at shortly???

Thank you for getting back to me. If a highway is 'adopted', it means that it is owned and maintained by the Council. If it is not adopted, then it is not owned or maintained by the Council and the Council therefore has no responsibility for its upkeep. The area you have mentioned is adopted and I have I have forwarded the details to Highways who will fix this for you. If you have any further queries, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Sincerely,

Ms Rasmussen

I have reported some instances that are on Rover way leading from Tesco Turning, heading down to Steel works This one is in reference to the roundabout that is next to Tesco Garage which junctions with Hind Close and Handley Road. Its on the whole way round the one roundabout, not so much the roads that come off of it. Can you also explain adopted and non adopted and what that means for me and this issue. thanks

Thank you for contacting Connect to Cardiff.

I would be greatful if you could clarify exactly which road and where on the road, the problems are. This is because the road nearest the address below has both adopted and non adopted areas.

Many thanks,

Ms Rasmussen

Details: This piece of road is like riding over a race trace with dips and jumps!

Its so uneven and surely not right. At any speed, wet conditions or other contributing factors - this could be a danger.

The closest address, as the crow flies, to the location of this problem, 26m away, is: 10 Clos Hector, Cardiff, CF242HL

Please note that this is automatically generated, so ensure that you check it against the details provided by the user and, if possible, the map.

Had email from highways team at cardiff council. Road was checked (roundabout at hind close/tesco petrol station corner).

Stated road would be "considered" for listing on regular checking and future action. No change yet. Was checked but no action to fix.

Pot holes on going issue on Rover Way leading to industrial area. They are aware of and looking at constantly. Action due but will be on low use times (early hours on weekends)
