Another pothole tragedy - this time for a pedestrian.

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cq5yq67l26yo.amp

When will our roads and pavements be fit for purpose?

When will these tragedies end?

We ask that where possible you report potholes you come across to make it more likely that they will be repaired and incidents like these will be avoided.

Woke up this morning to the BBC News coverage of faded and worn out road markings.

We had all seen the remnants of worn out road markings. When the lines have literally faded to grey

This is a real issue for road safety. Drivers have reported over shooting junctions, being in the wrong lane, not being aware of bike infrastructure.

We have seen the government’s recent Road Safety Strategy which is to be welcomed …and paint is needed to provide the information road users need to use the road as it was intended.

What are your thoughts on air bags to protect cyclists’ spines?

These are not mandated for pro teams. Extra weight? Uncomfortable? Cause heat/ sweat build up. What happens after if has been inflated … another cartridge required?

It’s . And it’s our Partner and Lead on Cycling, Nadia Kerr’s birthday 🎂

It’s fair to say that we have acted for many, many clients impacted by highways defects and we will continue to raise awareness of what we can all do to try and improve the position in particular for vulnerable road users.

Whereas some of the attached photos introduce a lighter side to this issue there is a very serious side too. We see very significant injuries flowing from some road defects which should just not be there if local authorities properly documented and properly maintained their network.

We win many more cases than we lose but these cases are very fact specific and can turn on a tuppence.

We are experts in this line of work and we

If you report just one pothole you are helping the cause. The pothole might be fixed. The injury incident might be avoided. If not avoided, you might be the witness to the existence of the pothole which allows someone to win their case and be paid compensation.

Report the most dangerous potholes when you can and please help the cause.

Do you remove your tubeless sealant from your tubeless tyres when you put your ‘best’ bike away for the season?

I am told you should to stop it solidifying in the tyre.

It’s a messy job though when it’s all runny …

Let us know how you deal with this
