A sinkhole has appeared on the pavement on the North side of the A4095 between the Cuckoo Lane and Boddington Lane turnings. This could be disastrous if it collapsed under a bicycle while a car was passing. Sinkholes have appeared along this stretch before. Is there cause such as a leaking pipe or drain that could be rectified to prevent future problems?

Council ref: ENQ241023089

  • The hole at the surface is 6 - 8 cm across. The cavity beneath extends 30cm both outwards and downwards. So this is a real hazard.
