Worst Road Surfaces In Britain.

[Killwilly]

I have come to the conclusion that the A and B roads of Lincolnshire have the worst surface in Britain....Unless anyone knows different!

Devon and Cornwall have always had good roads. Considering Devon has more bridges to maintain than any other county in the UK, they do very well.

I lived in Devon for 12 years before moving to Lincolnshire and must confess I did find a big difference with the condition of the roads. I have recently moved to a car with sports suspension which exaggerates the problem more.

Nope not a chance... I ride up that way quite a bit and the road are pretty good in most cases. Around Horncastle/wraggby/market rasen anyway.

The peak district truely is shocking, holes everywhere, gravel all over the places, surfaces worn down to a super smooth shiny surface which is deadly in the wet... a truely horrific place to ride.

Wales/North Wales has the best road network in the UK... the surfaces are fantastic.

The roads in the Lincolnshire Wolds are pretty good. I live in the south of the county, (the fens). Almost all of our roads have some sort of land drainage system (dyke's) running along side, which does cause the road surface to move. The problem is, no one wants to repair them.

I went to Powis in mid Wales two weeks ago and I have to say the roads there were not much better than here in Lincolnshire.
