Rectory road, never the greatest road surface in Suffolk, has reached new lows in recent months. A combination of run-off from fields, oversize farm vehicles and blocked ditches has resulted in numerous pot holes, swathes of sand & stones, and long sections of exposed & broken road edge. The situation is perilous enough for car drivers, but for cyclists and resident wheelchair users attempting to use it can be a veritable adventure, and not one for the old, weak, infirm, or those of a nervous disposition. More letters than ever have been fired off to the relevant bodies by residents and visitors alike, so now we sit back and wait with bated breath and crossed fingers.
