Large pothole

Reported via desktop in the Potholes / Highway Condition category anonymously at 15:22, Sunday 15 February 2026

Sent to West Northamptonshire Council less than a minute later. ref: 8924423.

Large pothole disappears when it rains as it is in a large puddle on this corner water not draining away . When the pothole can be seen cars are now driving on the opposite side of the road to miss it which is not good as cars come very fast into the village and then meet a vehicle that is going around this pothole on the wrong side of the road

  • Someone hit this today and punctured their tyre, I hope they sue the council. You have had plenty of time to fix this

    There is a bollard in it now as the council cannot be bothered to fix it.

    This needs fixing now.

    Anyone reading this who hads damaged a tyre and wheel needs to sue the council. This is a dereliction of your duty not to fix this. It is 50cm c 50 cm and 10cm deep.
