National Pothole Day Survey: UK Pothole crisis worsen

January 2021

According to a major survey conducted for National Pothole Day, about 80% of local authorities believe that the pothole situation has become worse in the past five years.

The road surface faults become a major road safety concern for motorists as cycling is encouraged.
