Dggsheffield   10 #494 Posted November 7, 2018 is there a site you can report road defects, because where the buses stand has failed and the patch repair they did lasted 2 weeks it all needs digging up and redoing , I think its time to name and shame the roads that need resurfacing Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

fill   10 #500 Posted November 12, 2018 ........I think its time to name and shame the roads that need resurfacing  thats fairly easy..... imo just about any road within the sheffield boundry including many if not all of which that have been done already by Amey Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Top Cats Hat   10 #501 Posted November 12, 2018  Could be any number of reasons. The materials used might have been faulty.  Maybe, maybe not but resurfacing a road that may be technically defective but is to all intents fine, before a road like Wordsworth which is not only in an appalling condition, but is actually dangerous, particularly for cyclists, makes no sense at all.  That is like a casualty doctor re bandaging a sprained wrist while a queue of people with broken arms are waiting to be seen.

Phili Buster   10 #502 Posted November 13, 2018 Doing the footpaths round here.  On Friday some nice men arrived and proceeded to patch numerous areas of the paths that have needed doing for about 18 months. On being asked they replied they were repairing 'trip hazards'.  The following Monday the same footpaths were all ripped up with new hardcore and tops put down.
