Lumpy road and broken road surface
Reported via desktop in the Pothole category anonymously at 18:22, Sun 23 March 2025
Sent to Oxfordshire County Council less than a minute later
This part of the road has been gradually worsening over the last year. It may not look that damaged in the photo but the cracks and lumps and breaks in the road surface are causing significant shaking to the house when heavier vehicles pass over it. Waking occupants at night and causing disturbance in the day. If traffic could be be slowed going over it ( possibly a pedestrian island?) , it may also help but at the moment the shaking is getting worse each week. It's serious enough to potentially cause structural damage to the houses here.
