@createstreets.bsky.social have been campaigning for stopping these #StreetScars I think. This is a horrible example.

A street scar on a cobbled street in the West End of Glasgow. Street scars are patches of asphalt used to repair a road that are not the same colour, material and/or quality as the surrounding road surface.

A street scar named undesirable: Council votes for action over Shrewsbury pavement patching A council has passed a motion to campaign for action on 'Street Scars'.

Create Streets have highlighted that the fine payable by utility companies for #StreetScars hasn’t been increased since 1991. Meaning that many just pay the fine rather than fix the issue.

@shrewslibdems.bsky.social have backed the campaign 👍

One reason we should build our streets with bricks rather than tarmac, york stone (or sticks, or straw!) no more #StreetScars
