The whole of manor road and Newbury Road from the traffic lights to the Ridgeway Path needs to be resurfaced. It is no longer fit for purpose, has completely degraded and has so many pot holes that I would need to send you 40 plus photos.

Completed degraded and not fit for purpose road surface, including multiple pot holes, edge subsidence and degraded surface along the entire length of Newbury Street and Manor Road Wantage. This is a major road, diversion route from the A34 and M4 which is no longer safely passable without swerving. Small back roads have been resurfaced whilst this is left to continue to degrade. This has been reported numerous times and Councillors have reassured us that work is scheduled. Please can you provide a detailed update on a completed resurface and not patch individual small pot holes.
