Same as usual. The 2 "patchwork" sections of road on the left edge of the road are opening up again. People reporting on social media that they have hit the areas at night causing cars to bang loudly as they go over. Likely to grow quickly due to poor state of road due to the multiple patches. Likely to progress to a state of damaging vehicles by end of winter (if not sooner)
