Sorry if this has been posted before......

You would all agree that local councils have been "Road Dressing" all the potholes and bad surface areas in favour of doing a proper job and for far too long - If you search the government site, they have a strict criteria and this is now being broken by every single authority.

Why not sign an official petition aimed at No. 10 started by a Motorcycle Dealership who is concerned about the number of motorcycles coming into his shop to repair damage to bikes by potholes, many of the riders carrying some kind of injury. All our cars are suffering too, so dont read and chat about it, sign the petition and see what No. 10 have to say.....they do sent an email to every petitioner.

Dont forget too, its election year so their response could be unusual

I agree with the petition, but sadly I doubt it will be taken any further.

To do a 'proper job' would cause even more disruption than the quicker dressing does, then everyone will moan about the constant road closures etc etc. Oh, and council tax would no doubt increase significantly. Highways work is expensive!

Roads are in a right old state, and the cold weather this winter hasn't helped at all!
