Edge of Road Broken Away

Reported via mobile in the Potholes / Highway Condition category anonymously at 16:04, Fri 5 December 2025

Sent to West Northamptonshire Council less than a minute later. ref: 8507271.

The edge of school road by this entrance to a field has completely collapsed and broken away leading to a long deep dangerous rut having formed.

The road in this area is quite narrow and there are usually cars parked on the other side of the road.

If the entrance to this field was properly surfaced attracts right up to the gate it would make the whole width of the road useable as well as providing a useful passing point for vehicles.

During school drop off and pick up times it is very dangerous.

Please can the edge of the road in this section and the entrance up to the gate of the field please be fully surfaced.
