LETTERS – Are you going to repair hole?

To the head of Lincs Highways:

Regarding the sink hole on Boston Road, Holbeach.

Thanks to your and Lincolnshire Highways’ apparent inability to ever effect an efficient repair to the said problem.

The damage to my vehicle because of said pothole has thus far resulted in me having to pay for a new tyre, vehicle speed sensor and tracking, to date nearly £100.

I suggest that you get out of your ivory tower and visit this and many other sites in the area.

The dual carriageway at Gedney roundabout, which I and many other road users have used in recent weeks, has had so many visits that stretch of road has been left looking like it has a severe case of woodworm – and still more holes appear.

Our roads are a veritable death trap waiting to happen, cyclists and motorcyclists have become especially vulnerable.

Are you ever going to do anything about this and so many other issues regarding road safety in our area?
