Icknield way is in a terrible state for cyclists and walkers. Im not sure who is responsible for it as its not a road but it is a bridleway and a national cycle route There are probably 15 potholes that are above the intervention level, there is no drainage at all on this section so you cant see the potholes for most of winter as its all underwater. Of course that standing water freezes during winter so is then extremely dangerous to anyone who uses it.

    Just a selection of the potholes on this piece of Oxfordshire county council cycling infrastructure. Can this be made safe.

  • This was reported nearly 6 months ago so must be time for the council to auto close it after doing nothing to ensure the safety of cyclists and walkers. before you do, I can confirm this is still very much an issue that needs to be resolved.
