The road surface at Lower Tuffley Lane is poor in a number of places, so I reported the defects to Highways.

They have filled the worst potholes, such as this one, but I believe more needs to be done. There are still lots of potholes etc along this key business route.

The process is what’s called ‘data-led’ – so the council respond to reports of specific problems at specific locations. Normally this is fine to get individual potholes reported and filled, but in this case the road needs a full resurface.

I’ll keep pressing the Conservative-run county council for more action on Podsmead’s roads.
