    The pothole is now around 2.5 metres long and deepening. I drove into the pothole at night on the 12th January puncturing my tyre and damaging my alloy wheel. The photos attached are from yesterday (13th) when I was able to return in daylight. How do I claim for the repairs / replacement to my car?

    Highly dangerous for cyclists, this could cause a very serious injury.
