Clive Holland's Little Bit Extra on Fix Radio

Are Britain’s pothole-plagued roads finally about to improve, or is this just another bumpy ride?

On Pothole Survival Day, Clive Holland is joined by Edmund King, President of the AA, to break down the Government’s new Red, Amber, Green traffic-light system ranking councils on how well they’re fixing potholes using public funding. What does the system really mean for drivers — and will it actually lead to smoother, safer roads?

Clive is also joined by Adie Coe from A D Renovates LTD, bringing a boots-on-the-ground perspective from Norfolk, currently rated Amber. From damaged vans to costly repairs, we hear what life is really like on Britain’s broken roads.

From policy to potholes, this is essential listening for every driver.
