give priority to fixing the large potholes on the A605 in Whittlesey.

The A605 is the major through road in Whittlesey, made far busier when (as at the time of writing this petition) the B1040 is closed because of flooding and all of its traffic diverts onto the A605.  

There are many unfilled potholes in Whittlesey.  But there are ten large and deep potholes on the A605 which have been reported for many weeks but which have not been attended to.

Many residents' car tyres have been damaged by these potholes.  Motorists swerve into oncoming traffic to avoid the potholes.  For a road as busy as the A605, it's an unacceptable situation.

We appreciate that parts of the A605 are now so damaged that they need total resurfacing, not just having the potholes filled in.  But local residents and businsses cannot wait until April or May or 2027 for the necessary full resurfacing, we additionally need these large potholes properly filled in now.

There are two large potholes on the Westbound carriageway of the A605 Peterborough Road between the entrance to Saxon Pit and the entrance to the Forterra Offices.  And there are eight large potholes on the A605 Kings Delph between the entrance to ARC Welding Steel Fabrication and the County boundary to the west.

We ask that these ten potholes be filled in without further delay, and that the necessary full resurfacing of the road additionally takes place as quickly as possible.

It is said locally that in Whittlesey, on the A605, we used to drive on the left of the road.  Now we drive on what's left of the road.

Please fix those potholes immediately and resurface the road fully as soon as possible.
