Worst Pothole Competition

January 27, 2008 6:49 PM

Pothole in roadSaffron Walden Constituency Lib Dems are inviting you to help them find the worst pothole in the constituency, which covers Saffron Walden, Stansted Mountfitchet, Great Dunmow, Broomfield and the surrounding villages. With the proposed cuts to Conservative-led Essex County Council's Highways Maintenance budget, there will be more and more potholes in the months ahead.

The Conservatives at Essex County Council have decided to not fix potholes unless they are more than 50mm deep (the current standard is 25mm) and to wait much longer before fixing them. To fight these hazardous proposals, we're asking for your pictures to help us demonstrate to just how stupid it would be to cut funding.

We're asking YOU to send us your photos to put on our website to help our campaign to oppose cuts to the Highways budget. We'll be awarding £15 of Amazon vouchers to the best photo we receive.

You can send us your photos by email to: potholes@saffronwaldenlibdems.org.uk

Or you can post them to: Liberal Democrats, Freepost CL2702 Stansted Mountfitchet Essex CM24 8BR.

Please send us your name and contact details, plus the location of the pothole, with your entry so that we can contact you! (The decision of Saffron Walden Constituency Liberal Democrats on which is the worst is final.)
