Pothole (possibly from collapsed manhole cover)
Reported via mobile in the A pothole in road category anonymously at 22:17, Friday 23 August 2024 using FixMyStreet Pro
Sent to Gloucestershire County Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 6392438.
The pothole is on Tewkesbury Road, next to the KFC, as you’re heading towards town. It seemed like it might have been caused by a collapsed drain cover, as it has been getting progressively worse and wetter recently, and is near to the curb.

Thank you for reporting a pothole.
First, a safety inspector will visit the location to assess whether a repair needs to be completed and plan the work needed. Works are prioritised based on the urgency of the situation. The council aim to repair all significant potholes (more than 4cm deep and 30cm wide) within 28 days.
In some cases a temporary repair will be needed, to make the area safe, then engineers will return to make a permanent repair.
We will provide updates about this report.

A safety inspector will make an assessment of the work needed and they will consider a number of factors, including the flow of traffic and the size of the pothole.
