Multiple deep potholes

Reported via desktop in the Potholes / Highway Condition category anonymously at 14:27, Tue 2 December 2025

Sent to West Northamptonshire Council less than a minute later. ref: 8492168.

There is a row of deep large potholes down the centre of the A45 between the 40mph marker and Braunston Marina Northamptonshire. There have been multiple reports about these potholes dating back to December 2024 and although other potholes at the same location have been repaired these have been ignored. They represent a danger to road users and need to be repaired.
