  • This one is getting deeper and more dangerous, especially to cyclists!

  • This is dangerous on a narrow road where cars are often parked on the opposite side and will damage vehicles. Has been like this for months.

  • One pothole has been repaired but there are still several either side of it that are in sore need of repair. There are now large chunks of debris being thrown up by passing traffic.

  • I have to clear the drive daily of debris thrown up by traffic - it is only a matter of time before some damage to my property/car occurs. Can this please be fixed urgently.

  • The potholes very outlined in July. The outlines have virtually worn away now, and the debris from the pothole is getting more problematic as can be seen from the photo of the rubble being thrown up onto our driveway

  • When can we expect to see this fixed. The damage is getting progressively worse and this is becoming a real hazard

    Posted by Jim Bruce at 14:43, Tue 19 November 2024

  • I have just cleared more debris off the drive and it is now being thrown up even further onto our property - it is inevitable that cars parked in the drive will be damaged by this. The pothole is getting deeper, and is a real hazard for both cars and cyclists on this busy stretch of road.

  • Can we please have a scheduled date for these potholes (for they are multiplying) to be fixed? This has now been over a year since first reported!

    Posted by Jim Bruce at 11:46, Tuesday 7 January 2025

  • Can confirm the gravel from the hole is now hitting the car parked well back on the drive!

  • From mid October "Thank you for your enquiry. We have investigated your report and it has been actioned to be fixed.

    No action has yet been taken. I continually sweep the debris back into the hole to try to mitigate how deep the hole actually is, but I feel that this NOT my job to do.

  • Boulders are now being displaced from this pothole. No action has been taken since this issue was first raised 15 months ago!
