The whole of Spain Lane is a serious danger to both motorist and also cyclists of which there are many. The end he’s are not properly finished and could result in cars grounding when forced over by the larger farm vehicles that use the road. These large vehicles often travel at speed and give motorists and cyclists little option than to move over right to the edge. This will undoubtedly cause tyre and possibly rim damage which could result in an accident due to tyre or wheel failure if not instantly but also at a later date. Can someone please look at this before some serious damage is don to vehicles or worse loss of life or severe injury to the public that use this frequently.

The standard of the road along Spain lane and red lane is very poor there are large numbers of vehicles that use the road and travel at high speed often forcing you into the gutter area. In turn they are also causing this area to become in suitable for normal cars and in a lot of circumstances 4x4’s would struggle not to end up with tyre and wheel damage.
There is also a lot of evidence of contractors that have dug up the road and poorly patched it. These result in ruts and very uneven surfaces which will hinder breaking and also rapidly disintegrate. If contractors dig up a road or use a road like they will when the solar panel farms are given the go ahead they should be made to put the road back to a high standard. The other issue is the effect on cyclists these ruts and potholes are lethal And could quite easily lead to loss of life. Can someone please drive this road preferably at peak time / rush hour so they can truly experience how dangerous the roads are.
