POTHOLES believed to have been caused by badgers and bad weather are causing driving misery for motorist on Sunnyhill Lane, near Oare. Driver Sarah Hayat measured pot holes as deep as 1m and said: "It's controversial but the root cause is the badgers and the council don't seem to know how to deal with the issue effectively."
A Wiltshire Council spokesperson said: “We have temporarily repaired the issue so traffic can use the lane as usual. Additionally, we are liaising with DEFRA to determine the most appropriate permanent repair with minimal disruption to both the road user and badgers in the area.”
