Kildare Drivers Least Likely To Complain About Potholes

But while the complaints are low, the payouts have still amounted to thousands of euro.

Kildare motorists are staying quiet when it comes to potholes.

New figures show the county recorded the fewest complaints about damaged roads over the past three years.

But while the complaints are low, the payouts have still amounted to thousands of euro.

Since 2022, Kildare County Council has handed over nearly €17,000 to drivers for pothole-related damage.

In that time, 95 claims were submitted. 88 have been settled.

Across the country, pothole complaints have surged — up 92 per cent in three years. 

Cork tops the list, followed by Dublin, Kerry and Limerick.
