Dangerous potholes where two attempts to fill failed within hours and is a lot worse now. Now over a length of at least 4m down the tyre line. Compounded by the flooding due to culvert and ditches blocked. This needs immediate action to properly this time to permanantly fix it before there is a serious accident due to fill and stamp previous attempts.

Adding that this same pothole is on a bend, and its position next to the flooding means cars are already moving towards centre line before they see the pothole then they swerve into oncoming traffic. This will lead to an accident in the near future.

This is bang on the county boundary. Therefore, I have to assume that OCC and BCC are just squabbling about who pays for it rather than getting on and fixing it. There'll be a serious accident here in the near future if this situation continues.
