Road repair

The road has been repaired outside 2255 Awhitu Road with two patches of tarseal on the right hand lane if you are leaving the Pollok settlement and going towards West Coast Road. It is just about opposite the gateway of 2255 Awhitu Road. Where the repair has been done, was, for a very long time, existed a nasty slump/deep dip, in the existing tarseal. The firm who did the repair ignored this slump and missed fixing it by about 5mm. There is now a large pothole forming, it throws the car towards the centre line. When driving towards Pollok settlement in this lane, the natural reaction is to avoid this mess which then means the person behind you has to swing out further to pass you on what is, one of the very few safe-ish passing places on the entire Awhitu Road. The road repair has caused a major safety issue.
