Buckled: the paving in Wood Street

Councillor David Cunningham, cabinet member for transport, said: "I think it's stood the test of time for 20 years, but it's looking a bit tired.

"I don't think there's anything stucturally wrong with the road, but it in need of some TLC."

A council spokesman said: "We are aware the paving is uneven due to heavy usage by buses.

"We are working with our contractor to find a robust solution that can withstand the high volume and weight this section of the road is subjected to."
