This pothole has now gotten significantly deeper and larger. Motorists are now forced to swerve to avoid it. This will now cause damage to tyres and wheels if driven over. Please make this repair a priority.

Good evening, I attach two photo's I have just taken. This pothole is much deeper than the 3 1/4" / 83mm you can see here, given that the hole is so large that my 600mm long spirit level cannot reach the top of the road surface on both sides. You may wish to increase the priority give to this pothole please? Thanks. Kind regards, Cllr .Peter Matten.
