Resurfaced road just 'covered up'

Residents are fuming at "botched" resurfacing work on their roadafter waiting 10 years for it to be carried out.

Staffordshire County Council's highways team has been accused ofdoing "half a job" after it resurfaced Highfield Avenue, Cheadle.

Artist Janet Mozelewski has lived in the road for 10 years andclaimed road defects had merely been "covered up" instead ofproperly fixed beforehand.

A spokesman for Staffordshire County Council confirmed thatfurther work would take place on the road this week.
