West Berks Potholes

[Truffles]

West Berks is on another round of cost-cutting and us seeking views on reducing highway maintenance and filling-in potholes.

I am putting forth my views. If anyone wants to do the same, the consultation web-form is at http://info.westberks.gov.uk/index.aspx?articleid=...

Although to be honest, the amount of maintenance done at the moment is so minimal, that I doubt reducing the budget further will make any noticeable difference.

Well having made several successful claims against local highway authorities for damage sustained
to my vehicles caused by defective roads I will head into West Berkshire next time I need a couple of new tyres.

You may be able to cut your travel costs - East Berks is similarly shambolic!

Driven into Guildford lately ?
Woodbridge Road as you approach from Lady Mead (A3)end.
The road surface is a mass of pot holes and considering this is
one on the main routes into the town its a disgrace.
SCC hang your heads in shame - wkers.

Austerity, ain't it?

I filled in the survey. Roads are bad enough as is, we don't need them worse!

Done . Poor drain maintenance was cited as a factor in the flooding we had back in 2014

I had to change the 18" wheels to 17"s on our last car as they kept getting buckled on our roads
