The Advertiser's Get It Sorted campaign highlighted the state of roads in Swindon as it's latest target for getting the council to do something. They helpfully provided a photograph of a few potholes for any readers who were unsure what they looked like.

One curious statement was from Mr Herrington who complained about the state of Hughes Street, "I reported it to the council who said that it would be done by 2009 - I couldn't believe it. It's so difficult to get a straight answer out of the council."

Swindon Centric Says ; That answer sounds pretty 'straight' to us.
