Follow on from Reported Pothole

Reported via desktop in the Carriageway pothole category anonymously at 16:42, Monday 5 August 2024

Sent to Shropshire Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 14152526.

I note the the work is due to be done to resolve the issue-but when? I consider this a potential dangerous situation particularly for pedestrian traffic and not just Vehicle Traffic. The layout means this is a frequently pedestrian crossed area and at night there is no illumination. This situation has been reported to your Department since at least 18.6.2024 which was prior to my own report. I reported it as under Section 41 of The Highways Act 1980 you appear to be the Highways Authority responsible under that Act for Maintaining this Highway. .I also considered that this considerable pothole would meet the criteria (and at least 6 inches deep considerably exceed it) to be found in the case of Mills v Barnsley 1992 , a case you will no doubt be well aware of. In other words I consider I am doing your Authority a favour by drawing your attention to this situation and request urgent attention to it please.
