Huge deep pothole hole outside or near 5 College Road
Reported via mobile in the Road Defect category anonymously at 11:33, Wednesday 11 February 2026 using FixMyStreet Pro
Sent to Bromley Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 8892423.
This pothole and nearby deformities in the road were already forming and in progress when the council resurfaced the rest of College Road some months ago. It was very obvious that all of the defects would get worse overtime and there was no good reason not to resurface all the way to the traffic lights. Not doing so is a huge waste of taxpayers money and has resulted in lots of inconvenience, noise and damage. Cars and lorries are now flooding into this pothole shaking all of the properties along the street which add insult to the Injury already caused by the banging crashing and vibrations emanating from Farwig Lane. The pothole is now dangerously deep if it gets worse there is a risk of accidents and with people on the pavement regularly nearby, a bus stop nearby, and properties nearby this is incredibly dangerous.
