Large pothole emerging following all the rain. It appears to be a sunken drain/manhole cover.

Reported via mobile in the Pothole category anonymously at 06:22, Tue 24 September 2024

Sent to Oxfordshire County Council less than a minute later

Large pothole emerging following all the rain. It appears to be a sunken drain/manhole cover which has previously been filled but has become very deep again. Difficult to avoid as it is at the edge of the road when going round the dangerous bend on the A4074. No photo taken as too dangerous. Only going to sink further and get much worse.

Council ref: ENQ241017926

  • Agree, there are at least 3 very deep and dangerous potholes along this northbound stretch. Difficult to avoid as on the bend & cars have to move to the centre near to fast moving oncoming traffic. No pictures as too dangerous to stop in this area.
