Potholes

Having spent today dodging potholes about a foot deep, I really want to buy myself one of these tax disc holders...

They don't need to fix the pit holes. They need to completely resurface the hole bloody road network!!

This.

The council repaired a pot hole on the road I live on...but didn't repair one not even 100m on the same road.

And to think someone gets paid to make these decisions.

Actually I agree. The swearing isn't necessary. Still funny though.

People blame the council for potholes, blame them for not gritting the roads, for this and that etc, end of they day they simply don't have the resources or money any more so blame the Gov't that controls them.

TitanTim, I'm not blaming the council for not repairing the roads, I understand it's a matter of cashflow. Can't spend what you don't have.

My issue is how they're going about repairing the roads.

They fix one pot hole, dont fix another and 3 days later the one that wasn't fixed is marked up for repair. Given the two are walking distance apart, it leads one to question the logic regarding the fixing of the surface.

Surely if they're as short of money as they say, then making two trips to the same section of road would be more costly than just fixing both at the same time?
