Pothole on nearside of road heading toward Brackley

Reported via desktop in the Potholes / Highway Condition category anonymously at 13:02, Mon 8 December 2025

Sent to West Northamptonshire Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 8517190.

There's a pothole on the nearside of the road, just after the turning for the cafe. Given the narrow width of the road it's difficult to avoid.

  • Pothole is getting worse I hit it pretty much every day last week as there is no way of avoiding with the amount of traffic passing.

  • Still there. Getting worse and now getting to the point where damage is being caused because it’s now unavoidable unless you move into the opposite carriageway.

  • The priority for this needs to be increased. It hits my car hard even at 25-30mph, and it is difficult to avoid due to the oncoming traffic in this busy road
