Resurfacing required between Lime Grove and Corne motors

Reported via mobile in the Pothole category anonymously at 13:23, Wed 24 December 2025 using FixMyStreet Pro

Sent to Oxfordshire County Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 8589081.

I have been monitoring Draycott Road since I became an SU for the village for the last 6 months. Whilst I've reported a few potholes to be repaired down there, every time the pothole is repaired, the road around it is failing and creating more potholes. I reported one pothole recently, 2 days previously it was 1cm depth or so, within 2 days later it became 8cm deep and relatively big. I don't believe this is normal in a short space of time and would think that this section of road needs to be resurfaced asap.

There are parked cars on the East side of the road, and so traffic from both directions drive over these potholes. Draycott Road is the primary route for a number of estates. It's also a primary access for the nursery and primary school and also the village hall is on this road. With this road being considered as a side street, this road gets a heavy volume of traffic!

  • More photos of the area 3 weeks later, road is failing and more potholes appearing. Larger potholes have been reported on a 28day fix which I believe will be fixed imminently - which is only a temporary solution.

  • Whilst the worst potholes have been filled, the road surface is breaking up around it quite quickly, which will eventually turn into more potholes

  • The road looks worse than it did back in December.
