Road surface completely failed

Reported via iOS in the Pothole category anonymously at 22:11, Wed 29 January 2025

Sent to Oxfordshire County Council less than a minute later

Due to heavy HGV traffic, this roundabout now requires you to drive round it like Stevie wonder.

It needs resurfacing. I was previously told that it didn’t meet the criteria for repair (months ago). After lots of snow/ice, it definitely does now.

Please investigate. Really bad

Council ref: ENQ251033525

  • 23rd March 2025, several new large potholes have appeared on the approach on Ermont Way and exit to this roundabout onto Overthorpe Road. One measures approx 2ft across and several inches deep, and there are about 6 or 7 potholes.

  • This really does need sorting It’s going to start causing serious damage to the vehicles travelling through this junction. Not only that, dangerous for pedestrians/other road users as all you can focus on is avoiding the holes!

    This should have been fixed MONTHS ago, really needs action now.

  • I note this issue is still marked as “investigating” How long does it take to investigate?

    Drove along here today, it’s bad, third world country bad

    OCC you should be ashamed - please prioritise resurfacing this bit of road. Cannot be as big a job as your silly 20 mph signs that nobody takes any notice of. Priorities. New financial year very soon, let’s get going on actually fixing the roads?

  • Still no fix on the numerous potholes on this roundabout... When is this going to be done? It's been reported numerous times with no action and hasn't even been assessed because there's no markings on the road. Time to get to Facebook and shame you into a response.

  • I see that you’ve drawn some white paint around some significantly shallower and more avoidable potholes just up the road This really needs prioritising now, it’s becoming dangerous for pedestrians due to needing to swerve.

    It’s been months. No action. What’s going on!?

    Posted by Louis Jenvey at 22:15, Sat 19 April 2025

  • Example of a section of the road surface. It's getting much worse, large sections all round now to a point of been dangerous especially cyclists and motor cyclists.

    Posted anonymously at 14:57, Thu 29 May 2025

  • This surface is getting worse drivers swerving all over the roundabout to avoid potholes Accident waiting to happen.
