Beware: Stewarton Pothole

Just returned from Machrihanish and hit a very large pot hole the town side of Stewarton. I was travelling at 40 mph due to the road conditions and ‘bang’ cd player stopped dead. I slowed down and thought all was OK until a few hundred yards on I realised the tyre was flat.

I was not travelling at speed but it still knocked a large bend in my inner front rim.

I have since spoken to two ‘Machrihanish’ travellers and they informed me it has been there for some time.

Photograph the hole-with a ruler from different angles- depth, width, length. Time and date of incident with any witnesses and contact the council.

To late, these holes were filled in today, but with the tempratures being so low it may not bond properly.

Perhaps not, three incidents were reported to the local police office in relation to the pot hole - causing punctures to two cars.
