[QUOTE="Happy hillbily, post: 7112472, member: 3475"] It's not so much the size of machinery this way which damages the verges, it's the lack of maintenance the council do to the roads. The council just spent nearly two months repairing parts of the road down to the village, about a mile of road. They have done strips on the side of the road where the side was disintegrating into the verge. And it all looks nice and tidy now, but they have failed to do anything about the cause of the roads crumbling. WATER! All the gullys and grids from here to the village are either partly or completely blocked, so any water that gets into the road runs down the sides, then through the winter it freezes and thaws, and we're back to square one ! Also the local council thinks that water flows up hill, and not putting grids gulleys etc at the lowest point 🤷🏻♂️ :banghead: I suppose it's much easier and cheaper to blame farmers. [/QUOTE]
