Deep pothole (200mm)

Reported via desktop in the Pothole category anonymously at 16:40, Thursday 22 January 2026 using FixMyStreet Pro

Sent to Oxfordshire County Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 8745647.

A deep pothole has formed just past the Shirvells Hill junction. It is very hard to avoid as right in the wheel tracks. I would guess it is probably 20cm deep.

Council ref: ENQ261076014

    Pot hole has had a cone place it it because it is so deep. This cone has now been destroyed.

    Pothole is in the carriageway and cars need to swerve potentially into coming traffic to avoid the hole.

    Nearly and month since this was first reported, it seems. Very deep pothole - coud cause severe damage to a car if hit at any sort of speed.
