My 8.53 am pothole

[jack]

The council fixed my 8.53 am pothole! Thank you, council.

They have a webpage to send reports of potholes they haven't fixed, but as far as I can see none to send "Thank you! We appreciate you. Don't listen to the complaints, we all love you" messages?

I admit that the balance of the chances heavily favour their current approach, but it seems depressing to be doing a necessary but thankless task and only ever hear complaints that you haven't done it yet. (Where or not its your personal fault that you hadn't done it sooner.)

There is a Contact Us link on http://www.cambridgeshire.gov.uk/transport/roads/ which is a form to send emails to street.scene@cambridgeshire.gov.uk (I checked, it doesn't allow you to spam anyone else) I'm sure they wouldn't object to a freeform thankyou note.

You could also copy in your local councillor and/or the relevant Cabinet member: http://www.cambridgeshire.gov.uk/council/democracy/represents/

Aha! Thank you. I knew it would be there somewhere, but wasn't sure if it would just be a phone/postal address. Thanks.

Send a general email to the department which deals with the potholes. Trust me, it *will* be read & appreciated.

I used rmc's link, but yes, I that's exactly what I was thinking :)
