Massive rectangle pothole

Reported via mobile in the Pothole category by Hamze Ahmed at 22:47, Sunday 15 February 2026 using FixMyStreet Pro

Sent to Oxfordshire County Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 8926973.

This pothole is huge and caused my trye to blow, even though I was travelling under 30mph as it is on the approach to traffic lights. I was unable to take a picture as my tyre pressure light came on as I moved past the pothole.

Council ref: ENQ261084855

    Driving home from postal code OX4 4XP. I hit a pothole roughly 20-30 meters from the roundabout on the A423 that leads to the A34. My onwards journey was to Banbury on the M40. Images below of the damage and location. My driver side front type was punctured from this pot hole requiring recovery. I was not travelling fast as was approaching traffic lights.
