Repair and resurface the road due to severe pothole damage
Rejected
14 signatures
What the petition asks
We want the Government to ensure the local authority inspects the road, carries out proper repairs, and resurfaces it where necessary. Temporary patching is not sufficient, and long-term repairs are needed to make the road safe.
The road has multiple deep potholes that are damaging vehicles, increasing repair costs for residents, and creating safety risks for drivers, cyclists, and pedestrians. The poor condition of the road has been ongoing and requires urgent action to prevent accidents and further damage.
