Whole road is shot should have been fixed last year, 6th March

Tue, 06 Mar 2018 10:10:25 +0000
56.1674 -3.145933

This road has broken up further now with the weather. Was previously yellow circled for repair by fife council last year but was not repaired seemingly due to lack of funds. Pavements seems to be the higher priority for fife council whilst the roads generally are disgrace just now . Another waste of taxpayers money sending people out marking roads to be repaired and not getting done.
