根据新的政府规则,联合王国理事会如果不报告修理坑洞的情况,就会面临资金削减。 UK councils face funding cuts if they fail to report on pothole repairs, under new government rules.

从3月24日开始, 英国各理事会必须公布关于修理坑洞的年度报告, 或失去5亿英镑资金增支的25%。 Starting March 24, UK councils must publish annual reports on pothole repairs or lose 25% of a £500 million funding boost. 政府宣布为高速公路和主要A公路追加48亿英镑,理事会获得16亿英镑用于公路维修。 The government announced an additional £4.8 billion for motorways and major A-roads, with councils receiving £1.6 billion for highway maintenance. 批评者认为,这笔资金并不能解决当地道路维修工作积压的170亿英镑问题。 Critics argue that the funding does not address the £17 billion backlog in local road repairs.
