Largish pothole developing just past traffic lights

Sent to Reading Borough Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 8696417.

Have twice driven past/over a largish pothole developing just past traffic lights on Shinfield Road (near Northcourt Ave), heading into Reading. Been there since before Christmas. If not yet deep enough it almost certainly will be soon. Buses and heavy vehicles travel down this road.

Updates

I can confirm the pot hole has got bigger - I had to take evasive action today and go on the opposite side of the road!
