Reporting potholes?

On my drive to work each day I end up hitting a fair few potholes, which vary in size from those you can only just feel to those which feel like your spine has just shattered.

I thought I would report these holes before a serious accident happens. Logging onto East Cheshire's website I quickly found the 'report potholes' page and the 'link' to report potholes online - the only problem with this is that the link doesn't work! Is this a new way the council has thought of to save money? 4

Meanwhile the holes get even bigger and more dangerous.

www.fixmystreet.co.uk and www.potholes.co.uk They then report them to the relevant council, but it becomes a matter of record, which is actionable. They monitor the situation until the hole is filled.
