Please re attend this pothole has doubled in size and x 2 cars have popped their tyres on it in the last few days it’s dangerous as there are cars parked opposite and there is no way of avoiding it and the road during the week is so busy due to primary school parents parking all up the street

This pothole is a dangerous hazard now, and is growing in size and depth and really does need urgent attention. It is difficult to avoid due to the cars parked on the opposite side of the road.

Ref: 8572224 (see also: 8718237; 8802146; 8662076)
Caller reported severe potholes on an unclassified single-track road causing frequent vehicle damage and requested road closure until repairs. The agent confirmed potholes had been reported and escalated the issue for a highway inspector to reassess the road condition with caller’s additional information noted. No road closure will be authorised unless there is structural damage or flooding; the case remains open for further inspection. Handover Summary - Caller is a resident concerned about approximately 30 deep potholes per mile on an unclassified single-track road used as a cut-through between villages. - Potholes are up to eight inches deep and waterlogged, making the road nearly impassable and causing about one vehicle damage incident daily. - Caller has submitted numerous reports with photographic evidence but feels the issue is not being prioritised adequately. - The council’s highways team will not close the road for potholes alone, reserving closure for severe structural damage or flooding. - The agent escalated the caller’s concerns and additional reference numbers to highways for a reinspection and updated the existing reports with the caller’s latest input. - Caller suggested temporary measures like cones or hardcore but was advised these are not permitted or practical due to road narrowness and access issues. - Outstanding: No immediate road closure; further inspection and assessment by highways team pending. - Next steps: Highways inspector to reassess the road condition considering the caller’s evidence and concerns; case to remain open for monitoring and potential prioritisation.
