"The county council should have taken some interim measures to mitigate the hazard the degrading road surface posed to road users, particularly cyclists," he said.Repairs were carried out after the fatal crash The coroner said warning signs would have alerted Mrs Dumbleton, who might then have been able to slow down or take evasive action.
