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 are concerned about the condition of some roads, but we're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do. Additionally, maintenance of local roads are a matter for individual local authorities, not the UK Government or Parliament.

We could accept a petition calling on the Government to introduce new requirements for local authorities to maintain roads to a certain standard. We could also accept a petition calling on the Government to provide additional funding for road maintenance, either for local roads or national roads.
