Reported via desktop in the Potholes / Highway Condition category anonymously at 12:15, Wed 9 April 2025

Sent to West Northamptonshire Council less than a minute later. ref: 7410772.

Suggest yu take a proper/thorough look this time. I may not have worked in a borough engineer & surveyots department for a few years but I know when a road is defective and requires reopair! meantime I will contact Cllr. mr. Bagot-Webb about this. I did submit photographs earlier to show the severity of the problem when it had rained. it requires a trench repair along the road length 25 metres or so, as already carried out further up in tow places-for the same reasons! Now it is the new financial year, there is funding. pedestrians are being soaked by passing vehicles as well as the damage possibility to vehicle tyres!

  • Investigation: Completed (Defect Found) - Thank you for your enquiry. A qualified Highways Inspector has assessed the location and in accordance with the WNC Highways Inspection Manual, a pre-emptive defect has been raised. This means that the location does not currently meet West Northamptonshire Council's criteria as an urgent safety defect. However, the repair will be scheduled to be completed alongside other maintenance works in the local vicinity. We will continue to monitor the condition as part of our routine highway inspection schedule. Should you notice the defect worsening, please inform us via an update to your existing enquiry.

  • Just when is this area going to be repaired similarly to the trench repair 5 metres further on? You have even done a trench type repair nearby that was in a far less worse condition! This has been waiting for ages.
