Response
Could you please provide the number of potholes you have repaired in each of the following financial years please:
* 2022/23
* 2021/22
* 2020/21
For each year please provide the number of potholes repaired and, if possible, the number of potholes reported and the estimated cost of the repairs that year.
Please see the attached spreadsheet.
Please also note that whilst pothole defects may be logged individually, they may be repaired under a carriageway patching job description, so the numbers may not correspond. Also, pothole defects are categorised for repair under different time frames depending on safety impact, so again, there may be a time lag between potholes on the same stretch of carriageway being repaired. Some potholes will also be identified via road inspections rather than via a received report.
