Large pothole in the centre of Hayes Road

Reported via mobile in the Potholes / Highway Condition category anonymously at 22:30, Monday 9 February 2026

Sent to West Northamptonshire Council less than a minute later. ref: 8880055.

This is exacerbated because the road leading up to it is also in disrepair, with a long pothole forming. The whole section of road is ridiculously bad

  • This is getting more dangerous as multiple cars are driving on the wrong side or middle of the road to avoid all the potholes and not helped by people parking beside the potholes.

  • This section of road from the junction of Stratford road up to canal lane is appalling with multiple pit holes, uneven road service and deteriorated service in the form of large cracks through the middle of the road - it is becoming unsafe to find a way down toward the Stratford road junction missing potholes.

  • Are you able to provide any eta for the repair - it has been ‘within 26 weeks’ since February and now the work has been scheduled it would be good to understand when-ish this will take place. Thank you

  • What is the timeline for this repair and will you be addressing the whole section of road - they are also drain covers that bang and are sunken in that area along with large sections of deteriorated road surface and an incredibly uneven surface from appalling previous repairs over many many years - this section of road has not been addressed properly in more than 15 years.

    Give us a timeline for rescheduling works?

  • Hi, what has been scheduled to be repaired because is it going to end up just being one of two potholes opposed to the whole stretch of potholes?
