Huge pot hole re opened

Reported via mobile in the Potholes / Highway Condition category anonymously at 23:37, Wed 3 December 2025

Sent to West Northamptonshire Council less than a minute later. ref: 8499014.

This pot hole is extremely dangerous on such a busy road it’s an accident waiting to happen. It’s currently full of water therefore can’t be seen at night. It’s hard to avoid when you have on coming traffic. This pothole has already cost me £330 from before so I’d appreciate it if this could be fixed asap for the benefit of the countless drivers that use this road 24 hours a day!

  • Just gone down this huge pothole, cannot be seen at all in the dark. Bulge in the tyre!! Passed another car with a flat who had just had the same thing happened to them. 7 days is not good enough, so dangerous, why are we paying road tax? I would like you to confirm how we can look at getting compensation back for this.
