Not like the Dutch, they are allowed to put a finger in a dyke to stop the dribbling.

So much more liberal.

Oh Lordy 🤐

That's a very big "no".

 

And that, exactly that - is the point. I'd love to be challenged. The local paper can do with some relevant content. 

 

50 meters away is a similar size pothole that has been filled with concrete. The repair is at least four years old. It's a beautiful neat job. Nobody was taken to task about that. ( A local business owner sorted it out quickly, quietly) 

 

It's stopped raining - if I get time I'll pop out and buy some quick-dry, and document the repair here. 

 

Up The Revolution Citizens!

Is one allowed to repair a public asset without permission?

It depends if anyone notices.

Horse stiles need "repairing" by removal of the pieces that block wheelchairs. Sometimes.

The Dutch redo their streets on roughly a 30 year cycle. But they plan ahead, and invest, and have decent design standards, all of which are anathema in the UK.

Here's a video an online friend made when his was done. 12 minutes.

One of my kids lives in Amsterdam. The roads near where he lives are being redone. It's taken a year but you can really see the quality of the work.

I was with your old Mayor on Tuesday, he is a relative on mine.  Did not mention your problems as he now deals with nuclear stuff.

Was interesting as we had not seen each other since 1968.
