How I agree with Charles Foster (Letters, February 20) regarding the state of our local roads.

I live at the top of Coombe Road. This is in a dreadful condition with potholes emerging all the time and breaking up again after they have been filled in.

In several places there are pinch points and partial road humps which do not stop people exceeding the 20mph speed limit.

Coombe Road is on a bus route and is very uncomfortable to travel on. While they were doing the Lewes Road “improvements” why didn’t they use the opportunity to resurface the whole stretch?
