This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action. We understand that you're concerned about the maintenance of roads, but we're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do.

Maintenance of local are a matter for the relevant local authority, not the UK Government or Parliament, but we could accept a petition calling on the Government to increase funding for local road maintenance, if that's something you'd like to happen.

If you are concerned about maintenance of roads in your area you could raise this with a local councillor who represents you. You can find out who your local councillors are, and how to contact them, by entering your post code here: www.gov.uk/find-your-local-councillors
