Channel and potholes, 16th April

Tue, 16 Apr 2024 21:44:26 +0100
53.640122 -2.325926

Big channel of churned up tarmac and potholes along it. It’s right next to where cars park so cars, motorbikes and cyclists can’t avoid it. It’s dangerous. This was a botched up job when it was fixed. What a waste of money. A proper job should be done in the first place.

Dip in Road / Road Sinking, 1st April

Mon, 01 Apr 2024 23:29:50 +0100
53.637981 -2.328563

Once again the Road is seemingly collapsing from underneath outside 224 Bolton Road West. The road at this location keeps sinking and is developing a depression. The hole has been filled several times and has been stable for about 6 months but it's again worsening. This is producing a noticeable bounce in vehicles going over the road, particularly bad with large vehicles. Low Riding vehicles / sports cars are now grounding out when riding the dip. There is also a smell of gas in this area. Let's hope we don't get another Summerseat. The council have dumped a few loads of bitmac into the hole over the last 3years but never really addressed the cause as the road continues to sink. Bolton Road West is an ancient road and is not otherwise subject to subsidence. This depression would suggest something is amiss under the road such as a damaged sewer or failed culvert. Where is the council engineers professional curiosity? This should be a concern and the subject of further investigation as opposed to just dumping more and more bitmac into the hole. Please investigate further before a dangerous failure occurs. This is a busy A road and the potential liability massive given the numerous reports made to the council over the years, the council having attended by filling the dip have tacitly acknowledged the defect and this liability would be hard to dispute. Numerous reports of this defect are visible, publically on this site.

The roads around this area are a total disgrace I’m surprised someone has not been killed. This particular spot has been like this for several months if not years but has got much worse recently. My wheel is dented and punctured and I have yet to check if my bicycle frame is cracked from the impact I will have to get this checked by a bicycle mechanic to ensure my safety.

Residents Filling in Road Defects, 1st February

Thu, 01 Feb 2024 11:04:01 +0000
53.641303 -2.324293

We are building the foundation for an extension and will be pouring concrete for the foundations weather permitting. We have ordered a few extra barrows full of concrete. Why am i telling you this...? There is a large damaged grid on Bolton Road West, outside number 59/61. This drain has broken out annually for the last 10 years. The drain like most on Bolton Road West doesn't work and as it fills with water causes hydraulic pumping of the saturated liquefied earth causing the bitmac to break out and the road to hole. This has annual event has been reported several times since Oct/ November - the pins are on your site. A similar defect nearby was repaired a few weeks ago, but this remains. We can only assume the council has no intention of repairing this defect it is our [the residents] intention to repair this defect ourselves by removing the defunct gully iron. Removing the loose spoil and filling the void level with the road surface with Concrete. We may also remove other nearby gullies that never take water and show signs of similar defects. I understand that this may cause consternation on several levels at the council (as did the residents repairing Nuttall Lane a few years ago) and as a result of this action the may be a family of young cats born in the highways department. That is why we are giving you this final opportunity to repair the defect before we take direct action to ensure our own safety.
