Meanwhile in Lancashire, rain is compromising pothole repairs intended to deal with the effects of rain.... welcome to the North West, where its more often raining than not.
Its a classic case of cheap running repairs being a false economy... & I know, I've seen the cycle of pothole, patched rapair, patch failure, pothole reappears pretty much every day I cycle round here!
@ChrisMayLA6 Well, you’ve got to remember there were 4,000 holes in Blackburn Lancashire as far back as 1966. And, although the holes were very small, the intrepid highways department had to count them all. In those days the standard measure was not ‘the size of Wales’ but the volumetric capacity of one Albert Hall (or equivalent). Now scale that up for all the towns in Lancashire and factor in the economics of that era and about 32 years of Tory government and this is the outcome.
