Resurface the road through a housing estate with a school in the middle

Resurface the road through our Estate which is covered with potholes and very uneven surfaces due to poor pothole filling. We have people of all ages and physical abilities crossing the roads to get to our school, the roads are a trip hazard. Plus the damage this is doing to the vehicles.

Background

We are a Nursery, Infant and Junior School in the middle of a housing estate, the roads are in very bad disrepair, covered in potholes and extremely uneven where potholes have been badly filled.  Walking across the road to the the school is a trip hazard and we have people of all ages and physical abilities trying to cross the road without incident.  We have been asking the local council for the past 5 years to address the poor state of the road.
