New data has revealed the worst Nottingham roads for potholes last year.
A Freedom of Information Request (FOI) submitted by Nottingham World has shown which of the city’s roads received the most complaints in 2023.
The FOI also reveals how much taxpayer cash was used to repair the potholes on each street.
It cost Nottingham City Council more than £3,000 to fix 10 potholes on Arleston Drive last year.
According to Nottinghamshire County Council, for a pothole to be considered a safety defect, it must be at least 40mm deep in the road surface or 20mm deep in a footway.
Providing it meets the requirements, a pothole will be prioritised for repair depending on its size, depth, and road location.
Category one potholes will be repaired by the end of the next working day, although it can take up to 90 days to repair category three potholes.
