Re-tarmac Airlie Place & Ellers Road

Rejected 13 signatures

What the petition asks

My street has worn down to its bricks. There are potholes and temporary fixes everywhere, which need refilling every few times a month. The weather and temporary fixes have damaged the roads to beyond minor repairs. This needs serious attention and immediate action.
I and many other local people have contacted the council to bring the attention to the road surfaces in our area. Just covering a pothole is not a long term repair, this later worsens as rain seeps through and travels damaging a larger surface than what we had started with.

Why it was rejected

It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.
