A "death-trap" road in Nottinghamshire has been resurfaced after local councillors demanded the deteriorating road be resurfaced. Resurfacing works have been completed by Nottinghamshire County Council on two large parts of Mill Lane, Kirkby in Ashfield.
After receiving numerous complaints from residents and motorists, councillors in the area demanded action over the "dangerous" state of the road, which they feared had deteriorated to the point it was no longer safe to use.
Councillor Jason Zadrozny, Leader of Ashfield District Council and Kirkby councillor, previously referred to it as a "s death trap road" and visited Mill Lane this week to see the roads being carried out after stating they needed to be fixed as "an absolute priority." He said: "Whilst these works will be a source of great relief for drivers – it shouldn’t take bad publicity and uproar from residents and councillors for the County Council to act.
