Deep Pothole, 8th February

Mon, 08 Feb 2021 22:59:26 +0000
51.30669 0.605744

There has been a pothole on the Detling Aerodrome Approach road for several weeks. The snow and ice has now made this even deeper and in my opinion is quite dangerous should a vehicle run into it, due to the depth of it. It is directly next to a manhole cover, located in the middle of the road on the entrance to the Detling Aerodrome Industrial Estate.

The A249 infrastructure needs serious consideration for improvement I’ve sat in traffic from the Kemsley junction all the way so far to Jades Crossing which has taken 45 minutes instead of a 15 minuet journey!! Major traffic control issues between A249 onto the M20 needs improvement we have more homes being built but no improvement to our roads.

5 inch pothole, 16th March

Fri, 16 Mar 2018 17:27:11 +0000
51.303861 0.582144

The pothole damaged my drivers side wheel and burst my tyre on the 9th of March 2018. I had to have the tyre replaced and wheel repaired at a cost of £55. The location of this pothole is Scragged Oak Road Maidstone ME14 England If possible I would like to be reimbursed for the repairs of my wheel and hopefully have the potholes in that lane repaired as soon as possible as it’s my main route to work every day. There are dozens of potholes on this road that I constantly have to avoid and I think the whole road should be assessed and repaired as quite a lot of traffic goes through this route. Many thanks and look forward to hearing from you. Tom Cross

Illegal parking, 23rd September

Wed, 23 Sep 2015 16:22:56 +0100
51.292166 0.569932

There are several cars and vans parking on the pavement in Hockers Lane causing pushchairs disabled wheelchairs etc to leave the pavement and go on to the street plus walkers also have to leave the pavement to be able to pass the parked cars. The speeding cars in the Lane prove this to be a dangerous and hazardous activity. I was under the impression it was illegal to park two or more wheels in the pavement.

Sittingbourne road, from jades crossing junction (including junction) to M20 junction and including all junctions between jades crossing and M20 junction. There are various illuminated signs that are out. I have been continuesly reporting these for over 3years! Everytime it is marked as resolved and im told they will be fixed during the next high speed closure. 3years later they are still not fixed. These also include the 2 tall roundabout/bend ahead signs (refering to m20junction) . Please could this be logged or escalated. And I would very much appreciate a reply via email as to why these have never been fixed and when they will be.
