Concerns raised over 'worst repair ever' on Selston road

A councillor has claimed a Selston street had the "worst road repair ever" following work carried out by Nottinghamshire County Council. Councillor David Martin, who represents Selston on the county council for Ashfield Independents, branded the work "pathetic".

Cllr Martin and residents of Mansfield Road asked for the street to be 'patch repaired'. He said Nottinghamshire County Council used Viafix to repair dozens of potholes all within a few metres of each other on the road outside houses 100 to 106 - and he claimed the end results were not good enough.

But the county council has hit back - accusing Cllr Martin of making "cheap attacks". The authority added that the "emergency repairs are the first part of an ongoing process" and that "more extensive repairs" to roads are scheduled to take place later in the year.
