Tyre & Alloy Destroyers

by TomTom

17 Dec 2010

On the morning of 16/12/2010 (approx 0830am), my car struck the pothole stated, causing damage/puncture to front passenger side tyre & dented alloy. As the tyres must be replaced as a pair due to tyre type, the total damaged was approx £600.
I returned to scene later that evening (16/12/2010)/early of the morning (17/12/2010), when was safer to do & take my photos & measurements of the potholes causing damaged. This was still present at that time & no repair work has been carried out.
After taken my initial snaps in the evening, i contacted the tunnel operation control station to inform them what i had done & my intentions. This phone call has been recorded in their incident book approx 1020pm (16/12/2010), & they are fully aware. i was also informed that apparently these holes were repaired the previous day (15/12/20010), if true, probably more likey to have been report in-house i suspect.
Im taken further action and will be contacting tunnel station manager tomorrow & then directly with glasgow council.

A739, Glasgow, Glasgow City G14 0, UK
