Update on pothole repairs at Glenholme Terrace

Over the past few years I've submitted several requests for pothole repairs to be carried out in the back lane behind Glenholme Terrace, and on each occasion I've been told that the council isn't able to carry out any works because they don't own or maintain that particular stretch of road.

However, following a number of requests for clarification last year, I was told that the road did actually belong to DCC as part of its ownership of the Glenholme allotments on the other side of the lane. Consequently I issued another request last year for repairs and was told in September that because of the severity of the defects works would be carried out within 14 days. Full background details can be found in this link: Highway repair works to begin at Glenholme Terrace within the next 14 days

Unfortunately 4 months later it's become obvious from the images in this post that repairs were never carried out at this location so I've contacted the council again to request pothole repairs as a matter of urgency.

I'll update on progress with this query as soon as I have more information from the service, but in the meantime please take extra care when in the area.
