    There are multiple potholes now on the left hand side going up woodperry hill. There needs to be some urgent attention to them. Whilst some of them are marked, in the dark they cannot be seen especially when filled with water from the streams. There are around 17 pot holes in total. It is a fast stretch of road there is going to be a serious accident soon. It is almost impossible to drive up the hill without going onto the opposite side of the road to avoid the potholes. Some drivers are driving ridiculously fast. Please at least put some signage up to warn drivers of the hazard. Quick fix patches are not working. This needs urgent attention.

  • The ENORMOUS potholes, of which there are several in quick succession, are causing cars to pull up with damage and to also pull out into the road. Travelling every day to the hospital for work in the dark and rain is making this journey treacherous each morning and evening. PLEASE, PLEASE do something before somebody is seriously injured or killed.
