Whole road surface is very uneven.

Reported via desktop in the Roads and Carriageways category by rosemary Green at 19:31, Wednesday 9 October 2024

Sent to Oxfordshire County Council less than a minute later

The road has been bumpy since I first knew it 4 years ago. Gas Board works had a site for several months, some 2 (?) years go, opposite my house, no.1, which entailed heavy lorries of earth going along the road regularly. Since then the whole stretch between Appleford Drive and Harwell Close has continued to deteriorate, with very long cracks in the tarmac.

Council ref: ENQ241020156
