Cycling from Bloomsbury Road, Theobalds Road to Clerkenwell Road the other day. I found my self having to constantly swerve because of ruts, furrows, holes, ridges, gaps, sunken drain covers, protruding drain covers, Boris Bikers, Lycra Bikers, furrows, proud road markings, eradicated road markings, scree, rubbish and slipped kerbs.
I am aware the government intends to put more money into the roads following a series of difficult winters and maintenance underspend but the above mentioned route would be suggested as a priority.
Other bad roads that I believe should be a priority for repair in London are New Oxford Street, Lowndes Street and Tottenham Court Road.
What would be your priorities for repair?
