A date has been planned for resurfacing works to resume on one of a town’s “worst” roads for potholes.
Windsor Drive in Devizes was recently highlighted by Town Councillor Jonathan Hunter as a problem road in the town, which he says is facing a pothole “epidemic.”
The first phase of repair works on the road, planned by Wiltshire Council, was carried out in February.
Now Cllr Richard Oliver has informed residents the second stage of these works are due to take place at the end of April, although this is yet to be officially listed on the council’s roadworks map.

He said: “The works which have taken place so far are pre-surface dressing patching.
“This can take place up to a year before surface dressing takes place and is done to fill deeper holes and prolong the life of the surface dressing when it is done.
“I understand that some thought the works which took place in February were going to be the end of the process but that is not the case.
“The second part of the process is the surface dressing itself and this is planned for April 27.
“The process is weather dependent but it is hoped it can take place as planned and if not it will be done as soon as conditions improve.”
