New Year, new campaign against pot-holes

Jane

If you have a couple of minutes to spare, please report your 'favourite' pot-hole to the council.

For pot-holes in Cambridgeshire, it only takes 2 minutes and they respond quickly by email. (Actually getting on and fixing the hole takes them a bit longer, as you can probably imagine)

Here's to some new tarmac and happy cycling in 2014

Good shout Jane,

Ive had a go at reporting (again) the road from Wendy to croydon that looks like its been cluster bombed. It is already reported on their system and i was a little stumped at the question...when did you first notice the problem?...er, its always been like that.

Jane

Ha ha ... yes 'cluster-bombed' describes that one nicely

It took them a while, but they did do some patching there last year. Lots of new holes in the meantime though ... so the council definitely needs pestering

Jane

There's a piece in the Royston Weekly News (with colour photo n all) of our cluster-bombed road:

Road is a death trap, says angry motorist

Cambridgeshire C Council said 'repair work on this road is a priority. We hope to have it repaired by the end of March, subject to the weather.'

Call me a cynic, but I guarantee we will have weather between now and the end of March

tduckett

Ah yes, the Beirut boulevard...( actually a bit harsh on Beirut) ...made the mistake of going down there on the tandem with Mrs D the other day terrible and getting still worse.

If its repaired by the end of March ill eat my tubs.

Careful what you say Tim. Mind you silk walled ones are probably okay to eat.

FD

What type of glue will you use as a sauce?!

Jamie Red Van Man

Was the mistake riding down the pot holed road or taking Mrs D on a tandem!?!?

Hope you weren't wearing your see-thru shorts Tim, there's only so much a marriage can take...
