Holes all across the road cannot even move to other side to avoid. Probably the worst it’s been damaging cars and the wheels.

I’ve just come to pick my child up from school, driven up Heyford road and that hole has got much deeper, my wheel got caught and I drive a X3 4x4. It’s much worse from drop off this morning and advise someone investigates immediately as I’m sure smaller cars are going to have trouble driving over. Accident waiting to happen.

Even the bus shakes violently on the area with holes which are getting increasingly deep with the rain and now ice. There is so much water on the road that once it freezes it will be mega-dangerous. I know a cyclist fell off over one of these holes. I have heard a rumour that Thames Water have to fix the water problem. If they are not prepared to do that then the road will have to be closed causing disruption to the bus services and access to Heyford Station.

Our car suspension went the other day prob relating to this road. The hole has got bigger going across to the other side oncoming traffic. Soon you won’t be able to drive on that section of the road at all. I’m absolutely surprised no one is fixing this road or traffic calming, road alerts.

Road is getting disgraceful, I reported this last year. It got closed down without rectification. You can move to the other side of the room as it’s on a blind bend but even that side of the roads getting damaged now. Now cold weathers here it’s getting progressively worse as the days go on. Requires urgent permanent work now, not a temporary solution.

What on earth are you playing at ? I first reported this about 2 years ago and the sum total of action seems to be putting up 2 uneven road signs !!" This has to be the most dangerous road in the country there have now been numerous recent reports including damage to vehicles and still nothing? Surely you as a unitary authority have a duty to do something urgently otherwise what is the point of we the public using this service in short get it fixed. Who knows maybe the new MP might take an interest?

This road is getting almost impassable. The impending bad weather can only make matters worse. With todays technology you'd think it could be rectified. It's not like it's a mountain pass or a Welsh valley... I damaged my cars suspension the other day. Meeting the bus coming down the hill I had no where to go but through the swathe of potholes. Maybe when somebody gets seriously hurt, somebody might do something about it...especially if they are held accountable..

This road is the one that leads up to Steeple Aston Village and is on the school run so frequently used. I reported it to our MP over a year ago, nothing has changed, very dangerous if you are driving up or down and there is a bus coming from the other direction as there is no way of avoiding the damaged road surface. Please treat this as a priority!!!!!

Notice of drainage works closing this route.
Would make sense to resurface the whole hill? Don't you think?
