motorists should be careful when going overtaking cyclists and motorcyclists they have to avoid the potholes so could change direction at short notice give them a bit more space behind and when passing. There have been several people knocked off their bikes around the country by cars and other vehicles because of potholes

There are few roads where a decent surface is in existence, some that have broken surfaces and small lumps and bumps but the majority seem to have pot holes, bad/bodged repairs and generally are degrading badly due to neglect and lack of any kind of regular maintenance. Our roads are in a shocking condition, non of our local councils seem to care and things are getting worse, I have been riding motorbikes for over 10 years and its got worse since I started and especially over the last 2 or 3 years its got very bad very quickly it needs sorted before its the cause of a fatality which is when things usually get done.

Saw signs up near Guard Street at Wukington for road works tuther day, hope they'll repair the huge holes whilst they're at it !

you should try riding a bike on the roads they are terrible, when are the council going to sort them out????

Its about time these potholes were sorted out but these isn't the only areas where there is problems. Moss Bay Road next to the old Steelworks entrance is bad and there are also potholes on the A596 leading to Siddick. Cumbria and Allerdale Council need to spend money on the roads instead of projects designed to get people into town, have they not realised that people wont come into towns if the roads are so bad that you can't drive on them.
