Irritated residents living on a road 'littered with potholes' have called for changes after a woman fractured her ankle walking across the street. Jane Hedges, who lives in Arnold, was walking her dog through Arnot Hill Park on December 8 before making her way through to Arnot Hill Road, Arnold.
Along the journey, she crossed the street where it meets with Conway Gardens and caught the edge of her toe on a large pothole in the middle of the road. Jane said she heard a 'crack' as she stumbled.
She said she felt sick after the incident but forced her way home before a friend took her to an urgent care centre. There she was told she had suffered an avulsion fracture on the lateral malleolus - in other words, part of the bone had chipped off.
