One man鈥檚 novel way of drawing attention to potholes
One frustrated Swindon resident took an unusual measure to draw attention to his street鈥檚 pothole problems. Neville Daytona filled the holes with dolls鈥 heads to get the council鈥檚 attention as he was fed up with the craters being 鈥渂arricaded off for months鈥.
Neville told 成人快手 Radio 5 live鈥檚 Tony Livesey that it had given people in the village a laugh when they drove past it.
The council have now said Highways England would be fixing the issue, proving doll power works!
