This pothole has got significantly bigger and deeper and more dangerous since it was first reported on 17.1.26 and another smaller pothole is now developing adjacent to it. It CANNOT WAIT for 2-6 months before you repair it!! It needs repairing ASAP before it causes damage or an accident to a vehicle. Please reschedule with a proper realistic repair date.

This is dangerous to motorists, cyclists and pedestrians especially when cars are parked on the other side of the road at school pick up time and cars coming the other way are trying to avoid the pothole. This really needs fixing before July!

This has now opened up into 2 large potholes. This is a danger to traffic and cyclists. Vehicles are now having to take evasive action to avoid damage to their vehicles. This needs prioritising.

Hole getting larger & 2 more holes developing parallel to the first one. Presumably where people are swerving to avoid the original hole. Couple more weeks & we can add some compost & grow some daffodils 🙄

I am quiet surprised this has not been fixed, as it is on a dropped kerb for access for buggies and wheelchairs, for both the primary school and Danes Camp medical centre.
