A second large pothole in the middle of the road

Reported via desktop in the Potholes / Highway Condition category anonymously at 09:53, Mon 1 December 2025

Sent to West Northamptonshire Council less than a minute later. ref: 8484936.

There are now 2 large deep potholes in the middle of the section of road just beyond the reservoir around the bend (heading towards Upper Boddington). I note the other pothole has been reported. It is now becoming a slalom course on this road to/from Upper Boddington and exceedingly dangerous/damaging if falling into these in the dark, particularly for motorcycles.
