What causes pot holes?
Road conditions are affected by a number of factors including the weather, and the recent winters have had an adverse effect on road conditions, causing more damage than usual. The underlying geology can create significant differences in conditions across the county, with some ground providing a better foundation than others. As a result roads in some areas can be more prone to problems and potholes. The council has recently been making significant investment in bringing the road network up to standard, and is targeting repairs at those roads in worst conditions.
