LETTERS – Problem needs sorting

After three attempts to repair the sink hole in Boston Road South, Holbeach, it is once again sinking badly.

In another week or two, low-slung cars will be bottoming out, especially if drivers are new to this stretch of road.

There is a warning sign, but really the problem should be addressed once and for all.

Is this on the path of the old Holbeach River, which I understand was buried many years ago?

There used to be barges that came up the river into Holbeach. Wouldn’t it be wonderful to turn Holbeach back into a coastal town again.

Perhaps this persistent sink hole is trying to tell us something.
