Riddled with potholes and bad tarmac

Reported via mobile in the Potholes category anonymously at 07:30, Sun 11 May 2025

Sent to Leicester City Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 7550581.

All of Halifax drive, Marwood Road, Ingold avenue and Parker drive have horrendous roads. They are full of potholes and when there isn't potholes there's bad tarmac in that makes you bump and jump all down the road damaging my car day-to-day as I have to drive those ways to get to work.

They are continually there and it seems the answer to them is to cover them over till they appear again. This is not good enough. They need to be fixed. We should have decent roads to drive on. Why on Earth are you doing up areas that have already got decent roads and leaving the ones that are absolute mess?

    There is still a portion of road near the top of the hill where some of the road seems to have sunk causing two parts of the road to just out And another similar but much worse one on Ingold avenue

  • A stretch of Halifax drive where the disjointed area was had just been re tarmaced however the rest of the road is still extremely bumpy and horrid to drive on. Ingold avenue has not been touched and the majority of the road is in poor disrepair and a bigger disjointed area that the piece on Halifax Drive
