If a pothole has caused damage to your vehicle, you should contact Hertfordshire County Council, as they handle both repairs and compensation claims related to potholes. Here's what you can do:
| Step | Details |
|---|---|
| Contact Hertfordshire County Council | They are responsible for pothole repairs and handling insurance claims. |
| Determine Liability | You must prove that the damage was due to negligence on their part. |
| Claim Compensation | If you intend to claim, gather evidence (photos, receipts, damage details) and write to them with all relevant information. If you have insurance, you might want to approach your insurer first. |
Make sure to take preventive measures to mitigate further damage, as this can affect your compensation claim. For more details on how to report a pothole issue or make a claim, visit the compensation claims page.
