BRIGG CAR-DRIVING SHOPPERS BEWARE OF THE POTHOLE


Brigg Blog drew attention to a large pothole some months ago, near what's now the B&M store, and eventually someone was sent along to fill it in.
That repair remains good. However, another pothole has developed nearby (pictured here) and is in need of attention.
Car drivers heading for the very well-used car park adjoining Spring's Parade need to watch out for the dip, as do those using the main park serving B&M.
This road surface is not the responsibility of North Lincolnshire Council, the highway authority.
The council has a difficult job keeping on top of all the potholes that develop over a wide area.
There's one at the junction of St Helen's Road and Yarborough Road that could really do with attention if "the boys from the blackstuff" have a bucket-full left over.
We also need to flag up - again - an out-of-order street light halfway down St Helen's Road. It has been "out" for many weeks.
