Our photographer Kelvin Lister-Stuttard decided to venture around Chorley to see how many he could find.
Take a look at some of the current potholes currently plaguing Chorley roads including Preston Road and Pall Mall.

A spokesman for Lancashire County Council said: “We know people are frustrated by the number of potholes after one of the wettest winters on record, which has caused widespread damage to road surfaces.
“All reported potholes are inspected and assessed on site, with defects prioritised based on the level of risk they pose to road users.
“Following inspection, those presenting the greatest safety concern are prioritised within our standard response times, and repairs are carried out where potholes meet our intervention criteria.”
They added: “Following a review of our inspection policy, changes to our highways response categories have been approved, focusing on five‑day and 20‑day repairs. This helps ensure response times are clear, realistic and applied consistently across the network.”
