A7 English Street Longtown., 19th February

55.007422 -2.971289

There are a number of potholes on the A7 in Longtown. There are two that affect us as when trucks hit them, our house shakes and rattles. We have reported them a number of times. At best, they get a bag of repair stuff in and it lasts a few days. There is a huge amount of HGV traffic that uses the road. The problem is the road surface. I am not complaining about the HGV’s. I have reported it to Cumberland council, they just say it isn’t an issue. Between 37/39 English Street and one outside 35 English Street.
