Large Ditch on side of road
Reported via desktop in the Roads and Carriageways category anonymously at 10:27, Wed 23 April 2025
Sent to Oxfordshire County Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 7469074.
A large ditch has formed on side of road, originally caused by a soft verge during flooding which then had lorry tyres make it worse. It is now somewhat hidden by overgrowth but would cause a lot of damage to any vehicle keeping close to the hedge. Any vehicle would be titled on their side and unable to drive out. On RHS if facing towards Shabbington. About 1.5 metres in length.
