How big a pothole needs to be for Southampton City Council to repair? Well @SouthamptonCC will leave Potholes upto 75mm deep on it's for six months. This is criminal, in my opinion and an abuse of Section 58 of the Highways Act

For motorists across Southampton, unrepaired potholes can be the cause of extreme road rage and flat tyres

This is the junction of Rock Lane and Winchelsea Road, in Hastings, showing a pot-holed road surface that people are comparing to the Moon.

#NationalPotholeDay GOV spin "£6 billion funding for local roads to councils". Truth is they cut over £11 billion funding to councils. Roads maintenance budgets cut by 50% in some authorities! #£12billionbacklog #OurRoadsDontLie #Time4Action

Fact of the day! Speaking to German Roads Expert today about differences between both countries roads one thing he was clear on. If Autobahn had potholes on them like he had seen on our Motorways they would be closed for repair! @railandroad @CommonsTrans

Filling Potholes is waste of money! Average cost to do so £50 but many cheap fixes fail within days. Permanent repairs cost more but last. Real answer is to resurface roads properly. £500m would only resurface about 1% of failing network #PeeingInTheSea
