After my letter, the borough did take action and the holes were filled, and further action was promised.

Imagine my dismay on a recent visit to find that the car park is fast returning to the same state of disrepair. What is happening to the money collected from the parking charges? Why are they not being used to keep this car park up to an acceptable standard?

While on the subject of repairs, St Helens Road from Dordrecht Way down to the Park Gates has been in a state of disrepair for over a year.
