Updates

  • Melton Lane ,Sutton Bonington - deep pothole outside number 60 and further deep potholes going west along this road to Bull Farm Crossroads. Cars are veering towards the white line to avoid the potholes putting themselves and other road users in danger. There has been increased traffic in the past few weeks due to closed roads in the vicinity. At busy times cars are travelling above the speed limit of 40mph. It is a road used by pedestrians who are forced to walk on the grass verge as there is no pavement>

    If any work is needed, they will arrange for this to happen. Should no immediate work be required we will continue to monitor this during our regular inspections.

    Although we always aim to complete repairs as quickly as possible, timescales do vary as we try to minimise disruption to customers by combining activities into single closures and always ensuring the safety of our people.
