Default Pot hole - Charing Cross Glasgow

Anyone passing Charing Cross in Glasgow please beware of the absolutely evil pot hole. The repair strip in the link below is completely breaking up and the council just keep making crappy repairs that don't last. The tarmac ends up further down the road in chunks.

It was full of water this morning and an unfortunate BMW owner went through it with the loudest bang I've ever heard.

the council wont give a fuck considering the thousands of worse potholes all over glasgow.

The state of the UK's roads is rapidly approaching that of 2nd world countries.

Thats the problem. Most of them haven't been repaired since last winter, and they're about to do it all over again.
