We want you tell us the worst road in Leeds for potholes
A senior Leeds Conservative member has accused the city council of "steadfastly doing nothing" to repair potholes in Leeds, as he blames the council of being 'incapable of dealing with issues' - he previously likened one road to the surface of the moon.
Councillor Andrew Carter said earlier this year that he was "disgusted" with the lack of action taken by the council to repair and improve Stanningley Bottom. Damage and potholes in the surface led Councillor Carter, who represents the Calverley and Farsley ward, to compare the road to the moon’s surface in June last year.Councillor Carter said: “It is my view that the lack of action is completely unacceptable. The highways department have steadfastly done nothing.
“Residents and constituents are bewildered by the lack of action and I am disgusted. It definitely is now, but it has been for some time, an issue of safety.” “All around the city, we see roadworks causing congestion and gridlock, costing millions of pounds, yet the council still seem incapable of dealing with issues like this which are equally as important.”Where are the worst spots?
