Shocking Deception- this has NOT remotely been fixed

Sent to Oxfordshire County Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 8807488.
A large collection of potholes and erosion of road surface all the way from the bottom of the hill to the to where the new surface is, has been present and deteriorating over the last year and reported back in jan 2025(!), but those initial reports have vanished off this website. OCC claim to have "fixed" the problem last week, but in fact only filled 2 of the potholes on the northbound section and left the rest on both sides of the road- how can this be considered to be remotely cost-effective, nor has it removed the significant risk to people and cars needing to move out of the lane (on double white-lined dangerous bends) to avoid the worst sections- there was a nasty collision less than 2 weeks ago. The sheer numbers of reports of potholes and damage to peoples" property across the whole county in the last few weeks is a very sad reflection of the lack of investment in our roads and is affecting our safety and the local economy on a daily basis. Please address this ASAP
