New surface dressing has weeds growing through it already

Reported via desktop in the Road surface issue category by Mark Cuthbert-Brown at 14:08, Monday 18 May 2026

Sent to Shropshire Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 14211189.

Your system accepted only the first 3 of the 8 pictures I tried to upload, each identified in its name with What3Words coordinates. I'll happily send you more - each showing the growth of weeds through the new surface dressing of the "UJ011 Duglands Junction to Severn View, Kinnerley" started on 30 April and finished very recently. I'd be grateful, please, for information about the cost of this work and its planned life - using, if necessary, the Freedom of Information Act. It looks to me as if the contractor has failed to complete the work satisfactorily.
