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.

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.

Right I'm going to photograph the 'repair' near our house. That'll take the wind out of the sails of local TutTuts if they so much as whimper.
