Verge worn away

Reported via mobile in the Verges - Damaged by Vehicles category anonymously at 19:10, Fri 16 May 2025

Sent to West Northamptonshire Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 7580470.

As you head to lamport from Rothwell, just passed the cottage driveway as roughly marked on this report, the verge has worn away on the bend and leaves quite a deep ditch. I have reported this previously to be told it is not deep enough.

It is at least 10cm deep.

If not deemed deep enough to fix, please respond with how deep it has to be, so I know when to report again.
