📢 Good news! Relatively dry weather over the last week cleared the way for highways work to forge ahead at West Chiltington Road, near Panners Drive, and it was reopened this afternoon. Details: orlo.uk/jLNqN

We would like to thank the public for their patience.

Expect delays 3 way lights in place, Birdham Road near the junction with Wophams Lane. Due to a broken manhole cover. Likely delays for the next few days whilst repairs take place. We have had reports of issues with the Traffic lights and our Highways team are on the way.

⚠️UPDATE: all roads are now open

We use a “sawn repair” approach to make our pothole repairs more durable. The edges of the defect are made neat before we then fill and seal it. We also audit our repairs, with over 20,000 audits completed in the last financial year.
