4 large potholes on speedbump, 9th June

Tue, 09 Jun 2026 07:46:11 +0100

There are 4 large potholes on this speedbump, 2 at either side. Due to this being a narrow road, and the fact there are always parked cars at either side, they are unavoidable and drivers going either way along this road need to go over all 4 potholes everytime they drive along this road. They have been there for some months and are steadily getting bigger and bigger every day.

In the last several month a HGV is parking on the green behind a double yellow line. The truck is mostly parked at the same place at night on Academy Street just opposite the wasteland.
