Tell Me About Those Potholes

October 27, 2022 in Essex County Council

In Rayleigh North, we're coming to the end of part 1 of the member pothole repair programme but don't be sad... in a couple of weeks we get to do it all over again!

Spotted a pothole repair like the one above on 'The Chase'? Good or bad repair? - let me know!
