Road defect from project completion

Reported via mobile in the Roads and Carriageways category anonymously at 13:35, Wednesday 22 April 2026 using FixMyStreet Pro

Sent to Oxfordshire County Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 9336319.

This has had a case open since the completion of tarmac in November last year. The inspection check should not have been signed off until the defect resolved. It isn’t a cosmetic issue. The affected area is worsening. My question is this - given i reported the defect upon immediate completion of the project, why has the inspection taken place and approved? Payment to the contractor should have been withheld before final payment. Why wasn’t this procedure followed and will you have the defect resolved?
