QLocal's Roger Blaxall promised to do some digging about a mystery hole in the road on the Ormskirk/Aughton border: https://www.qlocal.co.uk/ormskirk/new...t-55031507.htm.
No need!
The Prescot Road job's now been completed, and in the meantime this e-mail flooded into the busy QLOcal newsdesk from 'The Guys' who are obviously regular QLocal devotees.
'A good source of info is LCC’s roadwork’s bulletin, West Lancs. section:

If you look by the kerb at this location you can see a previous repair - a year or so ago the road started to sink here in similar fashion right by the kerb. That hole was a hazard to unwary cyclists!
