Pothole on right lane of A4500

Show reporter’s name

Reported via mobile in the Potholes / Highway Condition category anonymously at 16:07, Tuesday 13 May 2025

Sent to West Northamptonshire Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 7564402.

When leaving the lights in the right hand lane on the A4500, to go straight ahead and through the cross section (where the Super Sausage Cafe is on your RHS) to go up the hill towards the next cross section - being Barrack Rd / Broad St.. There is a very inconvenient pothole that is very nasty and is dangerous! Motorists either swerve to avoid it - chopping up the lanes or hit it which if done is a real wheel banger. Please can this be addressed as soon as possible, thank you.
