Getting things done – Hillside Place #dundeewestend

Residents have complained to me about the poor, worn road condition in Hillside Place and I raised this with the Roads Maintenance Partnership.

This is the response I have received :

“The Road Maintenance Partnership inspector has advised that there are currently no actionable defects in Hillside Place. However he has raised an order for thermal patching to be carried out when resources are available. There are currently a high number of locations awaiting thermal patching so there is no specific timescale at present.”

I will continue to pursue this as thermal patching would significantly improve the state of the cul de sac.
