FIXMYSTREET IN PL21 9NN
The following problems have been reported on Fix My Street within 2 miles of PL21 9NN:
Multiple potholes across the road, 1st December
There are multiple large (and deep) potholes along this stretch of road. Numerous cars have had damage to suspension and tyres, and cyclists have fallen off in this location due to the potholes. There are often cars swerving dangerously onto the opposite side of the carriageway to avoid. My local garage has advised that I get my tracking done weekly (at £80 per car per week) due to the potholes in this location. I originally reported these at least a year ago, and the amount I am owed in compensation is growing by the week. Please could SHDC or DCC provide a reasonable explanation as to why these potholes have not been fixed. As a possible way of funding this, how about reducing the gritting schedule? Gritters were all out the other night even though temperatures didn't drop below 7 degrees.

No sign prohibiting large vehicles on lane entrance, 20th September
The old sign prohibiting large vehicles has disappeared and we are having real problems with large lorries following their Sat Navs using this (very narrow) lane to get to Kingston. A few weeks ago the lane was shut for 24 hours when a lorry got totally stuck and the recovery people took a day to extracate him! A new replacement sign at the entrance to the Orcheton Lane off the A379 would help alleviate the problem.

This is a very dangerous and deep pothole on a very busy road. It is often filled with water and very difficult to see.

Two huge potholes, 24th November
Just before the junction with the A3121 on the Sheepham hill road, right next to the house on the B road are two huge potholes. One of which managed to put such a dent into the alloy wheel on my V70 Volvo that it blew the tyre and very nearly wrote off my wheel. the damage had to be hammered out with the mechanic who did it saying there was no guarantee the wheel would not crack. This pot hole not only delayed me by making me have to change the wheel, but forced me to drive 225 miles toi London on a space saver tyre and also cost me £120.00.
