Potholes Giving Local Drivers a Problem
Posted by Administrator : Wednesday 13th March 2013
LEAVING US IN A DITCH? Potholes are becoming more and more of a problem in Southend due to a lack of local maintenance funding and the changes in the UK weather. Potholes despite being seen as a miner problem they can affect so many drivers on a daily basis. Potholes can also cause damages to your vehicle from causing a suspension and tracking problems to damage wheels and damage to the exterior of the vehicle. Local councils have pledged to continue and improve efforts in tackling the persistent pothole problem across the Southend community.
