Recent temporary painted on tarmac repair to subsided road has not repaired the road and will further deteriorate to very unsafe condition due to heavy HS2 traffic, farm vehicles and Aston Le Walls equestrian centre large horse boxes and HGV’’s. The lead up to the Chicane from Main Street to Butlers close, the road is full of potholes and uneven road repairs from the past that have all broken down and are getting worse. Vehicles are using to wrong side of the road to avoid this obvious danger.
