The local council bin lorry has made a bit of a mess of our drive at the entrance. The bin men must have reported it to the department that repairs roads, as I found them filling the holes with tarmac.
I wouldn't exactly call it a good job. Perhaps they were hoping the bin lorry would tamp it down and smooth off the edges.....
Actually, a few days of cars trundling over it has tamped it down rather well.
On the strength of that, I may get a few bags of that cold lay tarmac to fill the other craters in our drive. I keep putting scalps in the holes, but they don't last very long and get pinged out.
Concrete would be best, but the constant traffic from 3 houses wouldn't give it time to cure.

I asked South Kesteven District Council to repair the tarmac in the road at the bottom of my drive so that the front of the car didn’t catch on it and they did a similar job. The feather edge that they left is slowly eroding away.
For some reason it has published me as anonymous.
