It is 'littered' with potholes
Irritated residents living on a road 'littered with potholes' have called for changes after a woman fractured her ankle walking across the street. Jane Hedges, who lives in Arnold, was walking her dog through Arnot Hill Park on December 8 before making her way through to Arnot Hill Road, Arnold.
She said: "It was before Christmas. I'm walking the dog, I walk through Arnot Hill Park and I walk through the park, along the old railway track, back on to Arnot Hill Road and into Arnold. "I have no other way of getting home because I walk through, I don't drive to the park or anything. And then after about an hour or so a friend took me over to the urgent care centre.
"That was on the Thursday and then on the Monday I went to the fracture clinic and they basically just said to carry on taking painkillers. So three-and-a-half weeks on it's still uncomfortable at times but I don't have to take painkillers anymore. Residents living on the road have also complained about the state of the street. Retiree Kenneth Harpham, 84, who lives in Conway Gardens, said: "We had people come out last week to try and fix them but not much has changed. I've lived here four years now and it's been like this the whole time.
