Old Hall Road in Gatley has suffered especially badly following the big freeze earlier in the year.  A few potholes popped up in January, which we got fixed quickly.  Then more came, then even more.

Currently the section of Old Hall Road by Pendlebury Road and in front of the old cemetary wall has big chunks of the surface stripped away.

Pam King and I are looking for funding to get the work done, either from the council’s central budget or from our (much more limited) ward budget, and we should have more on that soon.

But there were a few particularly bad potholes – not just the surface scraped away but the whole road gone and loose stones at the bottom.

On Wednesday evening we reported those to the council and I was pleased to see them repaired within 24 hours – as the most serious potholes should be.
