‘National disgrace’: pothole repair backlog hits record £18.6bn in England and Wales
🤖AI Özeti
The backlog of pothole repairs in England and Wales has reached a staggering £18.6bn, as reported by an industry body. Despite councils managing to fill in approximately 1.9 million potholes last year, only half of the road network is currently in good condition. This situation has been worsened by a particularly wet winter, leading to what some are calling a 'national disgrace' in road maintenance.
