Motorists are being warned of delays by Cheshire East Council as it unveils its summer programme of roadworks taking place during school holidays. Cllr Mark Goldsmith, Cheshire East Council’s cabinet member for highways and transport, said: “This summer’s programme channels our spending into road resurfacing rather than pothole repair. “Years of underinvestment in local road maintenance at a national level has left councils facing a growing challenge in keeping roads safe and reliable. “The problem is certainly not unique to Cheshire East, but it has been too little, for too long and it now clearly shows. “Therefore, I am asking for our MPs and central government to make a more meaningful investment in road resurfacing.
