Don't get me started on pot holes.... We moved house less than 2 years ago, rural, we live on a single track country lane probably 1/2 mile long there's 4 properties along this lane. It's a dead end also so only really used by the 4 properties, the odd fram vehicle etc, we're house No.2 along the lane (1/4 mile from the entrance). When we moved here the road was a mess, you were swerving left to right to get up the lane, the good news was that it was about to get resurfaced. That was probably just over 12 months ago now the entire length was ripped up and relaid.. So fair I've reported around 30 pot holes, several have now merged into one the longest being over 30 metres long. The local council have been out twice in those 12 months to repair but there are still around 10 (including the 30 metre one) which is 20cm deep in places.
the average cost of replacing a front road spring is around £120-£180+vat. aye, the roads are just hellish so they are.
I wonder how quickly they would get repaired if you did some covert "artistic graffiti" round them b 0 z 0 is a c 0 n t for eg...
And yet you went straight to a sex reference. the RFU are risk assessing trans women over 14 stone playing rugby with or Against non trans women where there is a big disparity in size as there is a duty of care to the smaller player.
My local authority has a blanket policy to contest every claim brought against it for vehicle damage caused by the roads even though they loose the majority of them, so I'm guessing they spend most of there share of the fixing cash in court and that's why our roads remain looking like the surface of Mars
One thing I will say for West Berks is that they make it easy to report potholes: https://www.westberks.gov.uk/reportaproblem However, they'll typically only fill in a single hole, unless you go round the loop several times, marking each hole separately on the map. Until they do an entire resurfacing job (most unusual - they usually do the joke "surface dressing" which masks dips in the road with tar and loose gravel, or else when they do resurface, they'll do the minimum stretch possible - sometimes only 100m or less). It's depressing to pay your council tax and to see how rapidly new holes appear even after a repair.
Was the remote control confusing? “So, what you will have done is, when the message flashed up on your screen ‘Do you want to watch Bangkok Chick Boys’ you must have clicked the button that says ‘No’.”
These seem to be cropping up at the side of the largest ones round our way lately and im guessing its not because theyre about to start filling them in...
