Very dangerous manhole cover for BT

Reported via mobile in the Manhole category anonymously at 13:53, Saturday 7 February 2026

Sent to Oxfordshire County Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 8860590.

The BT manhole cover is broken and very dangerous and my husband nearly just went through the concrete. BT need to send some urgently to repair it to avoid someone seriously injuring themselves. I have no idea what is underneath but it could be dangerous if exposed to the elements.

Council ref: ENQ261081673
