Alex joins in
I don’t know if Alex Watson OBE, leader of Derwentside District Council, reads this website (or whether he’d want to admit to it if he does) so he may be unaware of my “First 100 Potholes” target. Nevertheless, I have to congratulate him on notifying Durham County Council of a most impressive pothole to the rear of Duncurin House (the old Medical Centre on Medomsley Road).
Strictly speaking this one doesn’t qualify for my competition as it is in a back-street, but it is impressively apalling and capable of doing some serious damage.
We’re now a week into my campaign for pothole action from the Highways Action Line, and I’ve had to send a chaser since my original email is still unacknowledged. This is not a promising start.
have your say
