Over 12ft length of pothole on junction road safety concerns

Reported via mobile in the Potholes / Highway Condition category anonymously at 23:33, Tue 5 August 2025 using FixMyStreet Pro

Sent to West Northamptonshire Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 7984922.

Writing to report a large, long pothole worsening on road junction of Bramcote Drive entering onto Wilford Avenue, with lack of road markings showing. This pothole is causing excessive noise inside my home from its loose gravel when vehicles drive over it, particularly loud thuds and skidding noise that are disruptive. The pothole is quite large and long, several feet in length, One car has already left the road hitting the green electrical box due to the gravel produced from the ground degrading and worsening causing a skid risk on bend. I would appreciate it if you could arrange for repairs to be made as soon as possible.
