Matthew Pryor, Managing Director of Toppesfield, comments on the creation of a dedicated permanent pothole fund: “It’s fantastic news that the government has decided to create a dedicated pot hole fund. For too long motorists have had to contend with crumbling roads over the winter months and cash-strapped councils tasked with repairing them have been operating with one hand behind their backs.

It’s clear that the UK government has recognised that the UK’s road infrastructure is integral to the health of the economy.  The chancellor has put his money where his mouth is by funding the largest road investment programme since the 1970s in order to ensure we have a road network that meets our ambitious growth plans.”
