  • The Nortoft Trench is getting deeper and causing cars to drive on the wrong side of the road to avoid the worst parts when travelling up hill. As it’s near the junction with Cold Ashby Road this is dangerous and could be a contributing factor in accidents. For cyclists it is a very dangerous road hazard that could easily cause an accident.

  • This part of the road is only getting worse as mentioned before. Waiting until November to rectify the issue is too long to wait. A serious accident will happen due to this delay.
