Keeping Sutton moving is of course one of our top priorities. Prevention is better than patching things up, and the Council would prefer to stop potholes from appearing in the first place, reducing the number of accidents, keeping traffic flowing and avoiding costly repairs. Apparently, there are over 200 miles of road in the borough and although we inspect roads regularly, we can’t be everywhere at once. So, we’re asking for your help, please. We need your help to spot holes as soon as they start to form so that we can repair them before serious damage is done. Residents are asked to report a pothole online at www.sutton.gov.uk/potholes or by phoning 020-8770 5070, or please do let Jill, Alan or Hamish know.  Here’s one we found (and reported recently)…in Harrow Road.  More in a future posting.
