Work marked as "fixed" not actually done
Reported via Android in the Potholes / Highway Condition category anonymously at 14:27, Saturday 31 January 2026
Sent to West Northamptonshire Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 8808626.
Reported the state of this road under FixMyStreet ref: 8701316, which was flagged as "fixed" about 20 minutes after being marked as " in progress" today, 31st January 2026. No work has been done and the road is pretty dangerous to motorists, cyclists, horse riders, and just about anyone else who might use it - full of potholes, sunken road surface, great gouges and lumps that'll rip someone's exhaust system off! What a total farce and failure. Glad I pay my tax, vehicle excise duty, council tax etc and see such poor levels of return. Go back and actually do some repairs

Nothing has been done on the whole stretch of road across the field; totally unsafe to vehicles and people.
