Multiple potholes along this road which need immediate attention. Between A5 and Daventry need complete resurface as potholes are filled and within a few days they are holes again with the infill dislodged into road causing a hazard!

  • Hit a huge pothole on this section of road heading into Daventry in the dark last night (10th January). All passengers in car jumped at the huge noise, amazingly no damage but get it repaired ASAP. Completely dark so no visibility to see it and avoid.

  • This whole road is awful and being used as a diversion for the nobottle road closure. So June is way too late.

    West Northamptonshire Council is committed to maintaining safe and reliable roads, but it isn’t possible to repair every pothole immediately. The council must prioritise repairs based on available budget, workforce capacity, and the need to address the most safety critical defects first. All decisions are guided by the Highway Inspection Manual, which sets out how road defects are assessed and the timescales for repair. This ensures that resources are used responsibly and that the highest risk issues, such as those posing a danger to road users, are dealt with as quickly as possible while lower risk defects are scheduled appropriately within the limits of available funding.
