Wrexham, England Turned What’s Normal Here In Michigan, Into Tourist Attraction
There is a town in England that is dealing with such a strong pothole issue, that they've strated trolling their local council to get the roads fixed. A town near Wrexham has been dealing with pothole issues for too long, and the residents are tired of it.
So much so that, as you can see in the video below, a short documentary has been made about the issue, and the residents taking matters into their own hands to get the roads fixed.
In the article, which was written by Sky, they detail just what is "Pothole Land":
Residents on a road in North Wales have taken matters into their own hands by turning a road full of potholes into a tourist attraction. Signs have been erected in the village of Pontfadog in Wrexham advertising "Pothole Land".
It took a sign that reads "Deepest, longest, widest potholes in Wales. Two kilometres of award-winning potholes with very little actual road to spoil your fun," to actually get the local council to do somethin
A local who lives in the town, Tim Raddock, commented on how
They're ever-growing potholes because they don't get any attention, they just keep growing. From looking at them myself, they appear to be only half-filled in cases, or short of the existing road surface. So you could say it's better than nothing but it's not going to take long for the frost and the weather to break them up again and we'll be back to square one.
I think maybe we need to band together with them, there's strength in numbers, even though are ins't much in our roads. They call their town Pothole Land, we just call that Spring here in Michigan.
