  • Extremely dangerous deep pothole's across road heading to Minster Lovell. Unable to avoid. No street lights in the area. Accident waiting to happen

  • This is an exceptionally dangerous pothole. Impossible to see in the dark and wet, causes a massive bang when a car hits it. Had to pull over to check I hadn’t broken my wheel. Potholes on Burford Road leaving Witney are bad enough (outside WFS Country Shop) but these cover the whole road so you are forced to slow down. This one takes you by surprise. Absolutely shocking standard of road.
