Investigating
Increasingly damaged road causing our house to increasingly shake
Sent to Oxfordshire County Council less than a minute later
Church Road has become increasingly damaged/uneven and is causing our house to shake to a much larger extent, resulting in some new cracks in the property. It usually occurs when large, heavy vehicles drive too fast, and is due to the state of the road. I imagine the road became significanty worse due to all of the heavy vehicles used when developing the new houses opposite. Road really needs resurfacing or the nearby houses will continue to suffer from increasing structural damage.

Church road damage appears to be getting worse with more potholes forming especially now in the winter months. It appears that this road has been patched years ago due to the recent construction creating weak spots gradually worsening over time. Heavy vehicles using this road cause nearby houses to violently shake, waking occupants at all hours and causing visible cracks in structures. Action should be taken immediately.

This issue is still getting wore. The issues in the road are not getting any better and our house continues to shake/suffer increasing damage. I was here when a council worker came and fixed a pothole approx. 1 meter away from the 2 issues reported here, yet he drove away after fixing only the one. Inefficient to say the least, but extremely concerning that this has STILL not been fixed and it still being investigated.
