Hereford Voice Posted April 21 Report Share Posted April 21 Welcome to POT TRUMPS 'Herefordshire Edition' Dear Herefordshire Council, As we navigate the maze of potholes that pepper our roads, it's time for a game-changing approach to highlighting this perennial problem. Introducing POT TRUMPS 'Herefordshire Edition' – an innovative way to showcase the severity of potholes across Herefordshire while engaging the community in a fun and interactive manner. By assigning scores to categories such as 'Pothole Peril,' 'Road Rattlers,' 'Tire Troubles,' and 'Swerve Skills,' this creative initiative not only sheds light on the increasing presence of potholes but also underscores their impact on our daily lives. This light-hearted yet impactful strategy serves as a rallying cry for action, urging you to prioritise road maintenance and invest in long-term solutions to ensure safer and smoother journeys for all Herefordshire residents. Let's pave the way to smoother roads together – one 'POT TRUMP' card at a time! Sincerely, Hereford Voice We are now 'Twinned' with our friends @pot.trumps.chelmsford (Instagram) who have been so kind and we would personally like to thank Nick for all his input and creative advice. It has taken us a while to collate all of the information and images of various potholes around Herefordshire for us to be able to create our unique Pot Trump Cards. (Some of the potholes may have already been repaired as we have reported each one to Herefordshire Council). Each card comes with it's own data (might not be completely accurate but is more to highlight the significance of each pothole) if scores reach over 90 they then become a SHINY card, hopefully there will not be many of these. We will release new cards every week to add to our collection, here are the first 3. ⚠️ You can report potholes HERE Or click on our unique QR Code below 👇 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adrian Smith Posted Tuesday at 09:01 Report Share Posted Tuesday at 09:01 Great initiative. Hopefully the council get tagged into every one to shame them into sorting asap. The roads truly are horrendous, the worst they have ever been I would say. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adrian Smith Posted Tuesday at 09:02 Report Share Posted Tuesday at 09:02 Perhaps the Pot Trumps scheme could have the strapline of 'sponsored by every repair garage going' or a local tyre firm, as they are the ones benefiting from the motorists misery.
