“I am urging the public to report all road defects as the council insurance will find it very difficult to refuse a claim for damage where it is shown the defect was reported but not acted on.”
He added: “The state of some of our roads is a disgrace. We need a plan for addressing them, but we also need to know that defects that are dangerous are being treated with the urgency they require.”
