Harringay, Haringey - So Good they Spelt it Twice!
Pot holes on the Ladder - please help tell the council - hopefully we'll get improvements
Last friday...I was so pleased to see road menders setting up in the mid afternoon at the bottom of Hewitt Road ready to repair the multitude of holes scarring the already poor surface of my street!
There was a Haringey Press Officer there too - with hindsight there to take a photo opportunity shot of Men from the Council Repairing Our Roads....for the forthcoming Haringey publication or website even!!!?
Ok..that's fine...but..having sealed one dreadful pot hole at the bottom of the road the workmen proceeded to move up the road - and away!...The Press officer buzzed off after a friendly chat with me saying they would re-surface the road..but when?
Tokenism?!
A Stunt?!
Well..how cynical can you get when there's a major issue of wear and tear down our road as everyone comes down it to cut through to St Ann's.
I wouldn't mind but who was paying for the 8 - 10 workmen who showed up in their yellow vests? ...US!
Please take photographs of the potholes by your flat/house and send them to potholes@haringey.gov.uk
Or report them to Robert on 02084891335 - he's a nice bloke!

Hi Nora
Any chance you could find out why the very dangerous pothole outside 646 Green Lanes (close to Fairfax) has still not been repaired whereas the two close by (and reported at the same time) have been?
Should LBH investigate getting one of these: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/magazine/8529964.stm -

The Guardian's wondering if potholes will become a general election issue.

Good to see www.fillthathole.org.uk getting the recognition it deserves. I have to declare an interest - I work for CTC who set up this website.
