Pothole beginning to form

Sent to Reading Borough Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 9340990.

Although this pothole is small it is clearly a result of the contractors laying the new surface on a poorly prepared road. A plastic bottle that was under the surface is rising to the top causing the road to deteriorate. This surface is quite new and most likely still under guarantee.

Updates

No action taken and the hole is growing slowly bigger.
