• I reported these well over a year ago and was informed they would be fixed but they haven't been touched yet. They have worsened and need immediate attention

• Huge potholes around this roundabout cannot be avoided and very dangerous. Other people have already raised this issue and NOTHING DONE. Where is government money for potholes being spent?

• Problem not fixed. Has caused costly tyre blowout and damage to wheel rim. Suggest slow speed around this roundabout. Motorcyclists take extreme caution

• This is very concerning. Despite multiple report being made, no remedial works have been carried out, and the situation has now escalated into a serious safety hazard. The road surface is in a deteriorating state, posing a significant risk to all road users. Given the severity of the issue, this should now be treated as a priority before it leads to an accident - an outcome that is becoming increasingly likely with each passing day. The lack of action despite repeated reports is unacceptable. Please provide an update on the planned course of action and a timeline for when these repairs will be carried out. On each report made, there have been different responses from the council regarding when the works will be completed. This inconsistency is misleading and suggests that the information is unreliable. The most recent planned start date March 17th as displayed on Causeway One Network has now been removed with no new date established . This raises serious concerns about wheter the works will be carried out at all.

• Is this roundabout definitely going to be resurfaced next month or are we being fobbed off! The road surface is absolutely trecharous especially for motorcyclists and god forbid causes a fatality
