Related: About this forumHampshire potholes daubed with penis graffiti
Potholes in neighbouring towns have been daubed with penis images in an apparent attempt to speed up repairs.
Hampshire County Council said the graffiti in Lymington and Milford-on-Sea would be removed when engineers assessed the holes.
One respondent said: "This is coarse and vulgar. It is obscene and offensive to those of a sensitive nature."
Another replied: "In other regions, the vulgar protest appears to have gotten results, where polite and more conventional complaints have gone unanswered."
