The pothole-riddled road that's been given its own swear jar after being named the 'worst ever'
08.06.2022 - 11:11 / manchestereveningnews.co.uk
Residents in a Cheshire village believe they have the worst stretch of road in the county due to the number of ‘appalling’ potholes it has and things have become so bad that a swear jar has been put up due to the anger and frustration the road causes drivers.
Nearly 700 people have now signed an online petition demanding that the pothole-ridden Station Road in Wrenbury is finally repaired this year. Residents say the road is the main way to get in and out of the village, and that temporary efforts to fix the road have been unsuccessful.
For many villagers, the condition of the road is no laughing matter. Parish Councillor Oliver Lowe states in the online petition: "It is the primary access road into and out of Wrenbury. "Essentially, the road drainage failed some time/years ago leading to the poor surface developing.

“Last year the road was due to be repaired, but the funds were reprioritised to another (unknown) job. As such the road fell into significant disrepair. The council have since said that it will be repaired this financial year, but it needs doing as soon as possible, certainly before another winter.
“Villagers are also concerned that the funding will be reprioritised to another job again. The council are presently undertaking a few temporary repairs to the worst of the potholes that are forming, but they are interim measures only."
When CheshireLive visited the road earlier this week, a reporter discovered that someone had humorously placed a satirical swear box close by - presumably to compensate for any anger caused by going through.
Responding to the petition, Mary
