We all know the cost of motoring is rising. From the cost of fuel to the cost of maintaining our vehicles, it is not cheap to keep our cars on the road.
Nottinghamshire County Council's leader said as much as £200 million is needed to fix the area's roads. Ben Bradley made the claim in February after opposition councillors proposed a £20.5 million investment into the county's roads at the authority's annual budget meeting.
The Independent Alliance group of councillors said it would have funded this investment partially by cancelling the investment in new Top Wighay offices. But Conservative councillors accused the Independent Alliance of a 'gimmick.'
