Yes, there's only one s in Creswell; a bit like there's only one f in Cannock.

Pennycroft lights are basically impassable - just don't bother trying.
Dug up to connect the Granny Ghetto, I presume.
Also, particularly out of town, where the fog is thicker and speeds higher, there is a remarkable percentage of drivers still "saving their batteries"...

It's actually a special self-gritting road surface, I (don't) believe.
It is a truly 'special' thing to spend that amount of money to make things worse. Not only did they block a good bit of the perforated kerbing, but the new glossy tar skid-pans, especially at the Henry Street junction, will surely provoke some excitement?

Enjoying a drop of red.
You have to admit that Highways have a gift at this sort of thing.

Even if it was done at no cost, it would have been better left as it was.
The rebuilding of Sandon Road was done to a very high standard (much to my surprise, I'll admit).
It is shameful to see it treated like this.

Had a closer look today and before long the complete length of that road will need to be redone & yes those shiny areas on the bend could well have a 2 wheeler going down.
Cannot believe in this day & age they still use this micky mouse method to surface the roads.

I wonder if any of the myriad organisations that extort money from us has ever considered actually taking some positive action about the bizarre 'flume' on Gaol Square?

Like the council, maybe? The big bucks chief should be made to stand by that puddle.

So, we've had road sweeper trundling up and down Sandon Road today, trying to remove most* of the loose gravel that has piled up at the sides of the road.
Maybe they're going to try to glue some of it back onto the skid-pans?
Or, maybe not.
* Except where parked cars were obstructing it and whatever proportion it knocked into the drains..

Severn Trent causing long delays on the A34 during rush hour tonight, digging up the road outside the Co-Op. Travelling Northbound and as a direct result of this, I was forced to take a short-cut up Alliance Street...

Midlands News ... Shrops council reportedly paying £1000 per day to 'pothole consultant'. How could anyone be expected to live on that pittance? No wonder the roads are in such a state.
It's highly unlikely any claim would be paid.
