Pothole Claims Surge, Councils Get Funding Boost
Update: 2025-12-29
Description
Pothole compensation claims in Britain surged by 90% between 2021 and 2024, with drivers filing 53,015 claims in 2024 alone. Despite councils averaging £390 per successful claim, fixing pothole damage on a typical family car costs around £590. Councils face budget constraints, but the Department for Transport announced £7.3 billion over four years for road repairs and prevention. Some areas, like Derbyshire and Oxfordshire, have seen significant reductions in claims and invested in long-term prevention programs. Checkout Solipillow.com
