Large area of dip in road / damaged road surface

Reported via mobile in the Potholes & road surface category anonymously at 08:20, Sunday 8 February 2026 using FixMyStreet Pro

Sent to Bath and North East Somerset Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 8863973.

The road has been damaged / left in a very poor and dangerous state by recent road works. Car drivers are having to very suddenly slow down when drivers see the state of the road directly in front of them which could cause several cars to drive into the back of the car in front. This is on a very heavily used main commuter route into Bath, also used by buses, and will deteriorate badly before the next scheduled roadworks
