Walsall Council fills in only half of a highway potholeThe council contractors completed the job, as far as they were concerned, but local residents came out to look at the repair job only to find that only half of the pothole had been filled in, leaving the other half in disrepair. The reason given was that the other half of the pothole is on land owned by the local housing association and if they filled that half and an accident occurred, Walsall Council could be held liable.
