Three previously-repaired trenches, now collapsing again
Sent to Shropshire Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 14149600.
Three 'potholes' centred on NGR SJ 74535 07472
These 3 partially-collapsed trenches were dug (and then back-filled and surfaced) several years ago. One of them stretches almost the whole carriageway width, the other two are smaller but equally problematic. No3 is the deepest and most damaging. The problem for local residents is that traffic going both way (north & south) on Innage Road is almost guaranteed to hit one or all of them This is generally acceptable with cars, but every HGV, and certainly every van or tractor towing a trailer, makes an almighty loud 'bang' or high-volume rattle every time they fall into the hole. This is shaking the foundations of houses 30m away, but also now keeping people awake from the early hours of the morning as traffic passes almost constantly.
Updates

Thank you for contacting us. This note is to confirm that we have received your report and we'll be in touch with an update as soon as possible.

I see some progress today - the boundaries of these three holes have been highlighted and marked by spray-paint, so presumably that's an early indication of something about to happen., Thank you.

We have now arranged for the required work to take place to resolve the issue you reported to us.

Please can you provide a further update on this repair - nothing has happened for approx. 7 weeks apart from the outline of the potholes being highlighted in white paint in early July (which subsequently wore off and had to be painted again due to lack of action) In the meantime, the continuous disturbance to the residents from passing traffic crashing through the holes has worsened as the carriageway damage continues to deepen. This will only be exacerbated as the summer weather turns to autumn rain.

We're pleased to advise you that this work has now been completed.
