On March 22 at 2.57pm I told Swindon Council about a pothole in Carstairs Avenue and Cranmore Road, ref: 0395-2457. The council put a yellow marker around it.
On the 27 March at 8.28pm I told the council AGAIN about this pothole, (ref: 0395-2565). The council said they would put in a temporary fix within 24 hours.
First one = 17 days – that’s 400 hours, yes 400 hours. Second one = 12 days – that’s 280 hours, yes 280 hours. Although the council marked the problem, they FAILED to fix it.
