Deep Pothole

Reported via Android in the Pothole / Failed Reinstatement category anonymously at 12:28, Wednesday 14 May 2025

Sent to West Northamptonshire Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 7568302.

This pothole has been there for a long time and needs to be fixed as soon as possible. It is approximately 2ft wide but very deep. As it's on a raised part of the road drivers can't see it in time to take action in order to miss it.
