Who will look after our roads if 90 lorries use them every day?
Well, Devon County Council are supposed to look after our roads EXCEPT, according to TV news last week, they are £205 million behind in their road maintenance programme and are concentrating on A-class roads, not the B-class roads in Seaton (and Colyford, and Musbury).
Can you imagine what 3-4 years of 90 lorries a day could do to roads already poorly maintained. Accident looking for somewhere to happen? Outside the primary school perhaps.

Doesn't bear thinking about does it. The only way they will get the lorries through will be by double yellow lining all the access routes. I doubt if residents who currently park outside their homes will be too pleased. I think it might have been said elsewhere but of course the sewers, gas, water supply pipes and underground electricity supply routes will all take a pounding. With our Water charges set to go up by 16% this year they will probably need another 30% increase to pay for the damage. Seaton will become smelly Town because we won't be able to afford to wash and the sewage will be running down the streets.
