Deep pothole (sinkhole developing?) Close to final speedhump by 66 Cowper St

Show reporter’s name

Reported via mobile in the Potholes / Highway Condition category anonymously at 12:17, Fri 31 October 2025

Sent to West Northamptonshire Council less than a minute later. ref: 8360441.

Pothole (sinkhole?) has been there for months and seems to be getting deeper. Other dips in this road have been repaired but not this one. Concerned that it's only a matter of time before a full sinkhole opens up.
