I mean it - I did, to Shropshire Council. The road up to Ellesmere is an absolute disgrace, and the worst bit is by the ABP abattoir at Hordley as they have so many HGV deliveries. Turns out that ABP have a planning application in to expand the plant, so things are on hold. Email from the Council as follows:

Ed Your email dated 14/01 [I think it was 7.1!!! - Ed] has been forwarded for my attention .I agree that the road needs overlaying and we are currently on site trying to make it safe .I have a scheme prepared to overlay but it is on hold until the current planning application has been resolved sorry Steve
