E&S unable to find a picture of any roads in Stafford, so uses any old five+-year-old picture of a road in London (probably), in the hope that nobody will notice the red lines...

Pictures are essential to modern news coverage - pictures, any pictures...

How long does it take to lay a bit of tarmac??

If this scheme is anything like the A51/A34 roundabout in Stone which was recently tarmacked , that took almost 5 months just to make a smoother road surface - this'll probably be as long if not longer. It'll be carnage in a few weeks, I guarantee it.

but that scheme also changed the road layout a bit to increase capacity. it was a bit more complex than just laying some fresh tarmac.

you can travel towards Stafford but you can't leave. is the way I read it surely they wouldn't close the 2 main routes out of Stafford in a northerly direction at the same time would they? the diversion route around the road closure is via beaconside. at a time beaconside is scheduled to be reduced to alternate single line traffic due to roadworks there. it could get nasty out there.

Should make travelling to Eccleshall fun then from St Georges.

If you're going that way toward Eccleshall, then it can be better to go through the estate at Great Bridgeford, rather than queue with all the right-turners on the way up to the railway bridge.

But, don't tell everybody...

How the hell can someone lie like that?

Sorry, I’ll rephrase that... how the hell can someone be so economical with the truth like that?

I have a claim in with SCC because a previously filled in pot hole causes a puddle outside my front door. When cars drive past they splash water up the walls and so one is damp.

Yesterday the solicitors emailed me telling me they were going to close the claim as I couldn't give a date the damage to the vehicle occurred.

It is a skill honed over years - it's not as hard as it might seem, there is no accountability and they know there are no consequences (for them).
