Default Road Maintenance

Just seen on the news that Kent County Council are going to cut back on road maintenance. Members in that area need to sale their Scoobies and get a horse and cart.

A tank would be better, some of the roads around here are a joke, and don't start me off on the sub standard repairs that last till the next cold snap!

Roll on Germany at least we can dream that all roads are like this.

It's painful how true this is. I feel like for every pot hole covered, two worse one's appear..Before the first one comes back again!

Had a few holidays in France over the years, we could learn a lot from their way of working when it comes to road repairs
