    Watch out for potholes that will get you to Aussie in no time on the Trim Navan Road, some whoppers on it.

    It's an absolute joke especially as Mcc could find countless millions to rip up perfectly good cobble paths and replace with nasty precast granite, and not to mention the ongoing bull saga in market square..:rolleyes:

    Was actually going to post a thread on this just so people could highlight any bad stretches.

    Dublin road heading into Trim near the community school was always bad in spots, but some bigger potholes there now. It seems that some attempt was made to fill them (unless that's just grit for the expected snow) but the road is still bad in parts.

    Trim road heading out of Navan I agree is dreadful, some big potholes around the Lidl and Esso garage area.

    Also in Trim: the Lackanash Road (not sure what it's called actually, the road from Marcies down to the crossroads) has some huge potholes on it also.

    The bridge going into Kilcock from the Summerhill direction is in bits, and holes seem to be placed in a way that you cant but drive into at least one of them.

    I was in the Phoenix park today, and I couldnt believe the state of the main road through it, it looks like a warzone.

    The hill into Slane having crossed the bridge is disastrous. It was always pretty bad but the snow made it a hell of a lot worse. Impossible to avoid the holes. And to make things even worse they've just started digging trenches across the whole road so I can't imagine what state it'll be in when they've finished.
