Multiple potholes on A509 roundabout after eastbound exit of A14
Sent to Northamptonshire Highways less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 5694330.
Multiple potholes on the A509 Wicksteed Park Interchange, looks like previous repairs failed. Has been worsening over the last year. Vehicles swerve to avoid on this fast moving roundabout, so quite dangerous.

Too dangerous a road to take a picture I previously report these holes/ gouges in road and you said there wasn't significant damage to warrant repair even though I told you I destroyed my alloy on said holes. I have to drive over it daily and it makes the car judder and you have to be very slow not to hit it. Why are we being robbed of council tax when you don't fix the road or take responsibility for the work and payout when we damage our cars. It's disgusting iam bloody sick of it.

Everytime I go to work and use this route, no matter which lane you use, as soon as you enter the roundabout you fall victim to this. It’s a matter of time until a vehicle is damaged as car takes quite a hit when you go over it. Will have to look into better routes to get to work now. Not risking my tyres or suspension any more!

This roundabout by the Kettering Park hotel is a disgrace and has been in a dilapidated state for considerable time. Coming off the A14 onto the roundabout you cannot avoid the deep ruts which are pretty much wide enough for your wheel to fit in.

I rode this roundabout twice daily on a motorcycle - the position of the craters has nearly sent me off a few times. This roundabout needs resurfacing and lanes printed as it’s extremely dangerous in general not just here but the entire thing.
-
Very large pot holes as you exit the roundabout towards Kettering, there is no way of avoiding as the pot hole spans the width of the whole exit road!

OK, it's been nearly 4 months since I reported this, but this morning I was surprised to find that someone had a go at repairing this. Looks like a bucket of tar has been splashed about in the holes, but they didn't have enough to go round the rest of the roundabout. It may be that the other cracks and divots aren't deep enough to qualify, but if you're cleaning windows you don't just do the bit with birdpoop on it, you do the whole window since you're already up a ladder with your bucket. We'll see how long this lasts.
