Apparently there's a new piece of kit on the Gov. site telling you how your local authority is doing regarding fixing {or not fixing} potholes.
Just had a quick look at the map and the areas are in GREEN...AMBER...or RED, no need to tell you what colour round here is.
I know two wrongs don't make a right but again we visited Huthwaite/Sutton in Ashfield a few days ago and I can honestly say their roads ARE in a worse condition than ours, so spare a thought for those poor s*ds. Local authorities still find it cheaper to pay drivers claims for damaged cars than to repair the roads, this is obviously due to drivers putting in claims managing to win!!
The government obviously don't want to spend on road maintenance that's a given, yet I heard the other day there's plans afoot to REBUILD the M1 motorway as it's no longer fit for purpose, speaking as someone who has been using motorways for well over 50 years my opinion is that the M1 has not been fit for purpose since the late 70's.
We have 2026 traffic driving about on 1960's roads..... it can't be put any clearer than that.
