Residents for Uttlesford (R4U) is asking residents to tell us which local potholes they would like to see repaired for prioritisation with ECC.

Cllr Gadd continued “We have so far nominated about one-third of our allowance. The scheme treats groups of potholes as a single one, so we’ve been concentrating on identifying badly damaged patches of road which are heavily used. At the moment I’ve been nominating through-roads in Saffron Walden such as Peaslands Road, which are in a poor state, particularly around the Thaxted Rd mini-roundabout, and roads that are important to connect villages, such as Chestnut Avenue and Quicksie Hill.”
