Reported via mobile in the Pothole category anonymously at 09:57, Saturday 7 February 2026

This pothole has been marked red end of 2025 but has never been attended. Now broken down completely mains water metal box completely exposed. Extremely dangerous. Plus no doubt mains water issue next if this is not addressed urgently. Depth is 5.5 inches, length 21 inches width 15 inches.

  • This pothole is worsening by the day, it is in the nearside wheel line and is completely unavoidable when traffic is approaching in the other line. This is also extremely dangerous for cyclists.

  • The pothole with the subsided manhole cover has still not been dealt with. It is extremely dangerous to runners, cyclists and motorcyclists in particular, with a sharp upturned corner protruding. Please would you resolve this as a matter of urgency before someone is injured, or worse. Reports here go back to February. Thank you.

  • I concur with the latest post. This pothole is now a death trap to cyclists and motorists alike. I’m still waiting for the burst tyre and cracked alloy wheel which I’ve had to replace, to be reimbursed. With a local election looming I’d have thought these would be a priority for their constituents.
