Deep pothole by the side of road, 26th July
Coming out of our close (Gable Farm Close CO7 8GE) there is a long pothole at the side of the road which causes tyres/wheels to get lodged. In addition it is a hazard to our neighbour who is a wheelchair user. If a car is coming she could get turned over, trying to get to the side (there is no pavement). The visitors of residents of ‘The Oaks’ dementia home also use this road to walk their relatives in wheelchairs and again it is hazardous.
