The race to find the biggest pothole is on, with the first photographs already landing in the Herald's inbox.

The Randfontein Herald has received its first batch of entries for its #MyPotholeIsBiggerThanYours campaign, with Ward 6 councillor Martin Brown among the first residents to submit photographs highlighting the poor condition of local roads.

Submitted photographs will be published on the Randfontein Herald’s Facebook page, where the community can vote for what they believe is the biggest pothole. The entry receiving the most votes each week will be crowned that week’s winner.
