Potholes, speed bumps and broken pavements

Pothole (small)The state of our roads got you talking this morning. We heard how councils face a repair bill of up to £2bn for Scotland's crumbling road network after failing to tackle a backlog of serious maintenance and repairs. And your stories backed up those concerns.

Many of you feel less should be spend on speed bumps and more spent on essential maintenance. It was also interesting to hear a few of you raise the issue of pavements as well as roads. We heard some horrendous stories on today's Morning Extra of people who've been injured by tripping over badly-maintained surfaces.

You can continue telling me your experiences here.
