Icy weather has a nasty habit of creating new potholes in our roads, so Cllr Pam King and I have decided to try to visit every road in the ward and check for potholes, to catch them early.

Today I cycled around a sixth of Cheadle & Gatley ward (took a couple of hours, including a few stops to chat to people).  From that, I got this list of potholes below, some of which are new and some older:

Some potholes around Cheadle (plus the first, which is in Gatley)

Broken tarmac around grid, between 167 and 169 Gatley Road, Gatley.

Pothole, centre of Gatley Road, Cheadle 20m west of junction with Wilmslow Road (outside Tarantella restaurant).

Potholes outside numbers 8, 14 and 22 Hall Street, Cheadle

Pothole on Manchester Road, Cheadle where it passes over M60 (looks like it was marked up a while back but never repaired).

Potholes on Newboult Road, Cheadle at junction with Stockport Road, outside number 2 and a series of potholes outside numbers 20-26.

Potholes on New Hey Road, Cheadle outside number 62 (by kerb), 57 and numbers 63-67.

Pothole on Bulkeley Road, Cheadle by kerb outside number 55

Potholes outside numbers 14 and 21 Oakfield Avenue, Cheadle

Potholes on Oak Road, Cheadle outside numbers 5, 7, 15 and 19

Pothole at the junction of Whitegates Road and Ashfield Road, Cheadle (south east corner)

Pothole on Whitegates Road, Cheadle outside the garage of number 20.

Pothole outside 9 Alder Road, Cheadle.

Let us know if you spot any more potholes and dodgy pavements; we’ll be trying to get round the whole ward in the next week or two.
