Council civil engineers have estimated that repairing every flaw on Glasgow's road network would cost £96m.
Cities across Scotland have a backlog of repairs as road maintenance works were halted between April and July last year due to the pandemic. It said it takes a "risk-based approach" to maintenance and roads were in a "fundamentally sound condition".
£96m to fix 5,392 potholes is over £17.8k per pothole. I'm in the wrong job!
£94m will probably go missing under theSNP
Snp too busy spending the money on vanity projects than real Infrastructure, another example of the failure of devoloution and lack of independant oversight of the activities of the snp government
theSNP keep failing Scotland.
Crack on then 🤷♂️
