Northampton Road (cul-de-sac) is covered in numerous potholes, and the edges of the road are breaking down. If not addressed quickly, the potholes will worsen, causing significant damage to vehicles. The road is also hazardous to cyclists and pedestrians. Urgent repair and resurfacing are needed.

I have several photos showing the potholes and road damage, but I am unable to upload them all due to file size limits. I have included the most representative images to show the extent of the problem.
