Questions, Representations and Statements of Case Huzaifa Lorgat asks:
1. Coleman Road hosts our General Hospital and has an Emergency Ambulance station. Yet it is absolutely littered with potholes. Can the road be resurfaced as a matter of urgency? 2. Residents including myself have made many reports via the love clean street app for this issue amongst many potholes across Leicester, but they get closed as 'resolved', but issue remains. How does your department quality check to ensure reports that are 'closed' are actually resolved?
