There are two potholes forming on Birdwood Tce.


One is East of Oval Tce.

The other is at the corner of Birdwood Close.

This road has had multiple reports (see http://roadrepair.blogspot.com/search?q=birdwood )

Also, a couple of years ago a pothole in the same location was the basis of a claim against council for costs. The council claimed it was not liable "in Tort".


In the event of an incident due to the road surface on Birwood Tce, a case of FACTUAL CAUSATION would see the City of West Torrens liable (overridding any excemption by state Government or an "in Tort" scenario).

I hope you see this information as saving the City of West Torrens money AND working towards a safer environment for cyclist, pedestrians and motorists.

The others need attention also, but this is on the intersection and will cause damage to a bicycle or a fall.
