HOW are pot holes AFFECTING YOU?
We want to hear where the worst pot holes are in your area. Please fill in our survey below.
The poor condition of Britain’s local roads has led to the RAC dealing with the highest number of pothole-related breakdowns it has seen in any third quarter since it began recording this data in 2006, according to the latest data for potholes.
The UK is thought to have more than one million potholes, with these road defects being one of the leading causes of car breakdowns. Residential and rural roads are particularly blighted by potholes which threaten not only tyres and vehicle damage but also the health and safety of motorists, cyclists and pedestrians.
Rishi Sunak may promise £8.4 billion towards pothole repairs but this is over the next 11 years . Councils who are responsible for maintaining our roads (including Surrey and Hampshire) estimate the cost of fixing the problem is almost twice as much at £14 billion.
FAB Labour recommend that you report any potholes you do find to your local county councils: Surrey (click here) and Hampshire (click here).
At the General Election you can vote Labour who will dig Britain out of the very wide and deep pothole allowed by the Conservatives’ years of incompetence on this important issue!
