A Petition Calling on the County Council to Get a Grip of the Road Maintenance Contracts to Improve the Terrible State of our Roads
First, be aware that Cambridgeshire roads are in a shocking state with the greatest number of potholes per mile according to the most recent survey by GoCompare. The County Council’s road maintenance regime was recently rated Amber by the Department of Transport and this was a narrow miss of being flagged as Red.
Second, be aware that residents frequently say that although pot holes have been filled, they soon open up again. There is a widespread view that taxpayers’ money is not being used wisely.
We therefore call on the County Council to get a grip of the road maintenance contracts to improve the quality monitoring and consequences for the contractor of sub-standard work.
We further call on the County Council to ensure that the contractors operate under a transparent regime which provides council tax payers with value for money and which delivers high-quality road maintenance as standard.
