    where i live has become a road of muck due to the ammount comming off two building sites near me . the muck goes for about half a mile in both directions of the sites and has made the road very dangerous to drive on imo . thre is also a drop in part of the road and as far as im aware they must have a warning ramp sign for this .

    who do i write to complain about this ?

    living in offaly

    Your local roads dept I guess. If you are in a Urban District Council area you could give them a call.

    Yeah, I've checked a few biker forums where things like this are a bg problem. If you complain to your local county council or district council, then they'll contact the site and force them to continually clean the roads outside the site.

    yup it is the building sites responsibility to clean the roads. They just need some one to tell them to. Local council

    U can contact your local authority/council as well as the gardai. This practise makes the road extremely danagerous for all motorists especially bikers. If i were you I would take pictures everytime the raod is mucky or a passing truck spewing muck from its undercarriage. you can show these to the council or gardai if the builders refuse to comply with their directions
