A few months ago we had multiple residents independently complain about the state of Alston Way, Roseville. It was repeatedly patched but always got worse again due to an underlying / structural issue.
I raised the matter with Council staff and they said that although we didn’t have enough funds to address the matter straight away, they would consider it “next financial year”.
Well, the new financial year started in July and they got onto it straight away! I wasn’t actually expecting the speed on this one, as we’ve got other more complex but inter-related draining issues nearby as well.
