Collapsed pavement/sinkhole/pothole
Reported via desktop in the Pothole category by Tom Butler at 11:01, Wednesday 11 March 2026
Sent to Oxfordshire County Council 1 minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 9086302.
Why has this issue, first reported in November last year, (see OCC ref ENQ251065413) been marked as "Fixed" when all that has happened is that barriers have been placed around the problem? It has not actually been "fixed". I believed that the Council should not close reports that have not been properly remedied, otherwise they will perhaps be forgotten.
Council ref: ENQ261091293
