The metalwork around a drainage cover is exposed

Reported via desktop in the Pothole category anonymously at 10:14, Sunday 4 January 2026

Sent to Oxfordshire County Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 8622904.

The metal work surrounding a drain manhole is exposed - this will cause significant damage to vehicles (cars, vans lorries, emergency vehicles) as the issue is getting worse and is in a vulnerable position. If a cyclist hits it they will fall off which could result in injury.

Council ref: ENQ261070959
