Lib Dems call on Council to fix our roads
Local Liberal Democrats are calling on the Conservative-run County Council to fix our roads and pavements. The County Council has paid out over half a million pounds compensating motorists for damage caused by potholes since 2012. And Lib Dem County Councillors have revealed that at the current rate of repair it would take 123 years to resurface Hampshire's pavements.
