Extra £5m put forward to help tackle potholes in Leicestershire

Plans to inject an extra £5m into maintaining Leicestershire's roads have been unveiled.

The county council wants to use the money to prevent more potholes and ramp up its long-lasting resurfacing programme.

Following the harsh winter, the latest figures show around 1,760 patching jobs are outstanding - and the figure grows by around 20 a week.
