Pothole of the Month - January 2006
19th Jan 2006
Pothole of the Month - January 2006 Cove St. |
Just cos Cork 2005 is over and the orange flags are rotting on Pana it doesn't mean top quality art showpieces like our Pothole of the Month Competition won't continue. This month's exhibition takes place at the junction of Barracka and Cove Street (known to most people as "behind the F·s Building").

With depth, girth and inconvenience all getting ten out of ten there was no competition around the city this month for the title. The positioning of the pothole is also perfectly inline with judges' recommendations for Pothole Excellence.

All the traffic aside, as you will see in our judges' pictures this pothole is a real winner as it not only hammers the left hand side of each car that passes but it has also embedded itself in the path of pedestrians. |

Mother's with buggies would need abseiling gear should they lose their offspring in the depths of this gorgeous 'mega-pothole' : atrue example of some of Cork's finest potholes. |
Thanks to PROC users Comrades Ken White, Cormac McCarthy, Mike Flynn and Colman Dwyer who emailed us about this pothole. Keep them coming feens. If you would like the Pothole Judges to visit a pothole you've spotted email: editor@peoplesrepublicofcork.com |
