Rishton: Pothole complaints to Labour Councillors

Filled potholes in Rishton have prompted complaints to local Councillors.

Cllr Harry Grayson said, "I have had numerous complaints regarding the standard of work concerning filled potholes on Derby Street and Chapel Street in Rishton.  It is alleged that a lady tripped over a filled hole that was raised as the Tarmac had not been packed and levelled correctly. After visiting the site, I must agree that it is there is evidence that this work was not carried out correctly."

Requests have now been made for LCC to review the way potholes are repaired.
