Sent to West Northamptonshire Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 8734715.
The whole section of the road from weedon to daventry is full of holes, the manhole collapses closer to daventry, the main road to daventry and the condition is such that you are afraid to drive it, especially when it gets dark and it rains

West Northamptonshire Council is committed to maintaining safe and reliable roads, but it isn’t possible to repair every pothole immediately. The council must prioritise repairs based on available budget, workforce capacity, and the need to address the most safety critical defects first. All decisions are guided by the Highway Inspection Manual, which sets out how road defects are assessed and the timescales for repair. This ensures that resources are used responsibly and that the highest risk issues, such as those posing a danger to road users, are dealt with as quickly as possible while lower risk defects are scheduled appropriately within the limits of available funding.
