LAST week we spent a few days in North Wales staying in Harlech and travelling around there and the Porthmadog, Criccieth, Beddgelert area.
We travelled just over 250 miles on Welsh Roads - A roads, B roads and narrow country lanes - but I cannot remember seeing a single pothole.
All these roads look well maintained and not patched up.
Back home we are being bounced around again on the Cheshire and Greater Manchester roads.
Is Wales benefitting from devolution?
Every day we hear about the need for extra spending on the heath service, education, social care, etc.
and rightly so.
However, the road system is an important part of the country’s infrastructure.
Road vehicles are being targeted at the moment because of emissions and other problems but the hybrids and electric vehicles of the future will still need roads – so we need to plan for the future.
There is a magnificent new pavement being constructed between Mobberley and Knutsford, but then look at the condition of the adjoining road. Priorities seem to be mixed up.
