Loose manhole cover

Reported via iOS in the Manhole category anonymously at 21:34, Wed 3 December 2025

Sent to Oxfordshire County Council less than a minute later

Manhole cover outside 5 Jaspers Row, Merton Road, Ambrosden. It has evidently worked loose and when vehicles drive over it, this causes a loud “clack-clack!” noise than can be heard even indoors up to 20 metres away.

Council ref: ENQ251066892
