Resurfacing work in Northcote Road
ONE of the area’s most potholed roads has been resurfaced.
Highways workers moved on to Peache Road and Northcote Road, between Downend and Mangotsfield, over two weeks in June to replace a stretch of the route where large, deep patches of the surface had completely worn away, forcing drivers to swerve around long and deep potholes.
While the route was completely resurfaced from the bus stop opposite Peache Court, at the Westerleigh Road end, to a spot between the Stanbridge Close and Royal Road junctions, further up the road to Mangotsfield only damaged parts of the surface were replaced, including a strip by the Long Road junction and a stretch near the Windsor Place junction.
