Bricknell Avenue potholes to be repaired

John Fareham and John Abbott have secured an undertaking that potholes on Bricknell Avenue near the roundabout will be inspected and a work order raised to fill them in. We received complaints from local residents that they were experiencing vibration caused by these flaws in the road surface when heavy vehicles passed over them and that they had received undertakings that work would be done. John and I therefore checked the location of the potholes, took photos to send to the officers and listened to the noise made by traffic passing over the potholes, which tended to support the view taken of the matter by local residents. We have now received assurances from the officers that an inspector will visit the site and that a work order will be raised to get the potholes filled in. We are of course continuing to act on concerns about carriageway maintenance elsewhere on Bricknell Avenue.
