Re: Morning Ride Out Saturday 15th August
Devon highways are very proud of their record of paying out bugger all, the fault in the road had to have been previously reported, the process is you have to get the repair done yourself send them copies of the bill , Mot of vehicle, service history,insurance documents, proof it was taxed etc etc , I bent a wheel on my fiesta van, got a new/secondhand spare from a local garage on ebay for £30 and abandoned the idea of claimingtony volusia wrote: ↑Aug 19th, '20, 15:14 the state of that road i wonder if you could put a claim in against the highways dept
maybe worth a try as you got the photo of it

just think if everyone just abandoned the idea of claiming or reporting dangerous roads in the end nobody would bother to ride out anymore as it would be to costly keep repairing your bikes yourself

Re: Morning Ride Out Saturday 15th August

yes go here , https://www.devon.gov.uk/roadsandtransp ... a-problem/ start as though you are reporting a problem then when it comes to the mark it on the map page it shows you what has been reported already where it says track an existing problem you need a reference number to get it to work
