Multiple Potholes & Severe Rutting of Road Surface

Show reporter’s name

Reported via desktop in the Potholes / Highway Condition category anonymously at 10:10, Monday 12 January 2026

Sent to West Northamptonshire Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 8670528.

Re-reporting previous FMS - 8508304

This previous report was incorrectly closed as routine monitoring when clearly the edge of the road is badly broken away with severe rutting and multiple potholes.

I have recently written to Sarah Bool, Nick Henstock, Richard Butler and numerous WNC Ward Councillors regarding the condition of roads within WNC and the inconsistencies in inspections and outcomes of issues/defects that are logged via FMS

I will add this one to the list to raise with them in person.
