This is a recent repair after several months of waiting. Appalling work. Edges not sealed. Tarmac splattered on nearby York stone pavement and dribbled down the road itself. Sections of tarmac not even rolled, just shovelled into the hole and left. Debris from previous pothole still in place. Worst repair ever. Give it a month or so and it will need to be done again. Unsightly and appalling workmanship. Not happy that my council tax is paying for this nonsense.

Council ref: ENQ261100069
