PA

Motorists fed up with Britain's crumbling roads were offered some consolation recently, as the UK's Department for Transport announced its plans to fix Britain's crumbling road system and repair four million potholes by 2021 thanks to new funding.

Over 100 councils in England will receive a share of £50m to help remove around 943,000 potholes from local roads during this financial year.
