Roads to be given a new lease of life in the coming weeks include: Cannock Road, A41 Wellington Road, Merridale Road, Lichfield Street, Neachells Lane, Wrottesley Road, Wood End Road, A4039 Millfields Road, Whitgreave Avenue, Ruskin Avenue, Hall Lane, Prestwood Road, Rookery Street and Cumberland Road, with more improvements to follow.
Resurfacing in Merridale Road starts next Monday 9 June and runs to Friday 13 June, between 9.30am and 3.30pm each day, and along the A41 Wellington Road from Wednesday 11 June to Tuesday 17 June, between 7pm and 5am, weather permitting, with crews quickly moving on to the next roads.
Councillor Qaiser Azeem, City of Wolverhampton Council’s Cabinet Member for Transport, said: “We know just how important tackling potholes is to people and it is a priority for us.
“We are going to be out there resurfacing more roads right across the city in the coming weeks providing a smoother journey for all modes of transport.
“Thousands of potholes are repaired every year, but through a data led and targeted approach of preventative work we can reduce the number of defects occurring.”
The highways improvements are funded via the council’s £9.7 million highway capital budget, recently boosted by a further £2 million from the City Region Sustainable Transport Settlement (CRSTS), meaning even more potholes will be filled and road resurfacing improvements carried out.
