Villagers plagued by potholes say they "have had enough" and are calling for the road they live on to be rebuilt.
The quiet leafy road in Sotterley near Beccles, runs for one and a half miles and has about a hundred potholes, with the largest of them being up to six metres in length and 15cm in depth.
Locals who live on Sotterley Road complain that between them they have had dozens of car wheels damaged, fallen off their bikes and horse riders have even taken a fall.
They say that collectively they have been writing to Suffolk Highways urging it to be completely repaired for a whole decade.

The council's roads department has been sending teams to address the worse potholes but almost as fast as one gets patched up a new one emerges.
Among those living there are Andy and Fiona Wilkinson, Carol Bloomfield and Paul Wilson and Terence Thorogood.
The road is their only access point to their home.
"It is a joke, nothing seems to get sorted. They come out, repair just one pothole, and before you know it another one on the edge of the section they patch up appears.

"I don’t know what they are doing but it must be so expensive, I wish they will recognise it is a losing battle and replace the entire road, it is a miracle nobody has been seriously hurt," Mr Wilson said.
Mr Thorogood added: "In the rain it is impossible to see the potholes and they are far more susceptible to falling into them and blowing your car tyres, between us we have had dozens blow.
"It is incredibly dangerous. We all pay our council tax and want our voices heard so this can be addressed, the road doesn't even have street lights which adds to the danger, but also it feels like our money is being spent fixing everyone else's problems."
Mr Wilkinson joked that Mr Wilson, who has an impressive collection of carp in his garden, might find them living in the potholes.
"Some of them are so deep it won't be long until Paul's fish find a new home in the road, if they haven't already.

"In all seriousness, the bottom line is it is dangerous and Fiona and I who have lived here for seven years and have had enough," Mr Wilkinson said.
Ms Bloomfield said she has actually fallen off her bike due to "craters" in the road.
"I am not the only person to have fallen off my bike due to the potholes and I am not embarrassed to admit it.
"It was scary and it nearly propelled me into the ditch, I daren't take my bike out to avoid punctures but not now my health is at risk, what is the point?" she said.

"To avoid the potholes cars are driving on the verges and there is mud everywhere which also creates slip hazards for motorists and cyclists too."
A spokesperson for Suffolk County Council, said: “A number of potholes will be repaired on Sotterley Road soon.

"Due to limited budget, it is not possible to resurface every road in Suffolk, however, we are working through a programme to surface dress and resurface a number of locations across the county.
"We are repairing 34pc more potholes than we did in the same period last year and will continue to respond to those issues reported to us.”
